So what is Thanksgiving without gravy? Normally I miss out on gravy cause it's usually made with all those turkey drippings. Well, not this year! This gravy is soooo yummy, so easy, so fast and so vegetarian! I can't think of a better thing to make gravy out of than mushrooms so, here it is:
Mushroom Gravy
Serves 4 – 6
What you'll need:
1 small to medium onion, halved and sliced
1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tbsp. butter (or earth balance to make it vegan)
1 medium portobello mushroom, chopped
4 oz. wild mushrooms, sliced (these could be crimini, shitake, oyster or whatever you like)
2 tbsp. flour
1 tbsp. cornstarch
1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
2 tbsp. soy sauce
salt to taste
What you'll do:
In a large frying pan, on medium low heat, melt the butter and add in the onions, portobello mushrooms and garlic. Add a pinch of salt. Saute for about 2 minutes. Add the wild mushrooms and saute for another couple minutes. Add the flour and mix until dissolved.
Add in the vegetable broth and cornstarch. Stir to dissolve all the cornstarch. Let cook for another couple minutes and add the soy sauce. Taste and season.
Enjoy!
Thank you!! I always miss out on the gravy and haven’t found a good vegetarian recipe like this yet. Awesome.
Right Katrina!? So unfair that we miss out! And I will also add that my husband who is not the biggest fan of anything vegetarian loved this gravy! Happy Thanksgiving!
Ooo, Leslie, this looks SO good! I want to make this for thanksgiving next week. Do you think I should double the recipe? There will be 6 (and maybe 8) people over.
Roxan, I’m going to say yes, you should double the recipe. Have a great Thanksgiving!!
