Description

This fast and easy vegan mushroom gravy goes beautifully on Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Vegan Shepherd's Pie and Lentil Quinoa Loaf. It's oil-free, low-fat, soy-free, nut-free, gluten-free, and absolutely delicious.ย 


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups mushrooms, chopped (I used shiitake, but any mushroom is fine.)
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp dried rosemary (or ground sage)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 1/2 cups low sodium vegetable broth
  • 2 1/2 Tbsp arrowroot powder (or corn starch) to thicken
  • 1 Tbsp coconut aminos
  • 2 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat a large pan to medium-high heat. Add sliced onion, reduce heat to medium-low, and dry sautรฉ for 5 minutes until onions start to brown. Stir in sliced mushrooms and continue cooking for 5 minutes.
  2. While cooking mushrooms and onions, combine low-sodium vegetable broth and arrowroot powder. Use a whisk to stir. This helps to ensure there are no lumps.ย 
  3. Add dried spices to the mushroom and onion mixture in the pan. Stir until fragrantโ€”about 1 minute.
  4. Pour low-sodium vegetable broth with arrowroot powder into the pan.ย 
  5. Add coconut aminos and stir well to combine.
  6. Bring the gravy to a simmer, and it will thicken naturally.ย 
  7. When the gravy has thickened, turn off the heat and stir in fresh chopped parsley. Enjoy immediately!

This mushroom gravy keeps well in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. It can also be frozen in a freezer-safe container for up to 4 months. Let it thaw in the refrigerator before reheating. To reheat, add cold gravy to a small pot and heat over medium-low heat while stirring continuously.
