Cook Time: 30 mins
Serves 4

Take your mashed potatoes to a whole new level with this rich, savory mushroom gravy! It’s fantastic on these garlic mashed potatoes as well as my mashed cauliflower and parsnip puree. Vegan.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 shallot, finely chopped (⅓ cup)
16 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
½ tablespoon tamari
2 garlic cloves, minced
1½ tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
½ tablespoon chopped rosemary
¼ cup all-purpose flour
3 cups vegetable broth
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook until soft, about 4 minutes.
Add the mushrooms and cook until soft, about 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the tamari, garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir for 1 minute.
Add the broth and simmer until thickened, whisking often, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

Make this recipe gluten free: Omit the flour in step 2. At the end of step 3, spoon a few tablespoons of the liquid into a small bowl. Add 2 tablespoons cornstarch and stir until smooth. Pour this mixture back into the pan and stir until the gravy thickens.
