In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter (or heat olive oil) and add shallot, cooking for approximately 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until translucent but not browned.
Add the cream to the saucepan and increase the heat to medium-high. Allow cream to simmer rapidly to reduce, stirring occasionally, approximately 10 minutes until slightly thickened.
