1/3 cup minced shallot
2 TBSP flour
*1 rounded cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
3/4 cup full bodied red wine

Heat the butter and oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the shallots and *mushrooms and cook until tender. Stir in flour - cook for one minute. Slowly add wine and beef stock, stirring to combine.
