Add butter to the hot pan, melt, and whisk in the flour. Cook until butter and flour have browned – do not burn. Slowly whisk in beef stock making sure to whisk out all the lumps, then add granulated garlic, and tomato paste.
Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring frequently. Gravy should be reduced in half. Add mushrooms and shallots in the last 5 minutes.
