Time 7m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1.25 cup water
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce (tamari for gluten-free)
3 tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 Tbsp thickener (flour or arrowroot powder)

Steps:

  • Whisk together the water and 7 simple ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl, and place in the microwave for about 2-minutes, stirring at the halfway mark.
  • One of the ingredients needs to be a thickener of some sort, and you can use flour, cornstarch, or arrowroot powder. Personally, I like to use arrowroot powder because it doesn't clump nearly as much and it's so easy to use, but you can use any type preferred.
  • The gravy will thicken as it heats. If it doesn't get as thick as you would like, add 30 seconds to the microwave time. And, if it gets too thick, add a tablespoon of water and whisk together well.
  • It is really easy to adjust to the consistency desired. Just remember that it will continue to thicken for up to about one minute after cooking.

VEGAN CREAM SAUCE/GRAVY



Vegan Cream Sauce/Gravy image

This is my variation of a vegan cream sauce recipe I found on the Internet: http://www.veganwolf.com/recipes/sauces/vegancreamsauce.htm It is a great "milk" gravy, or used as a sauce over pasta or vegetables. For the chicken or beef style flavoring, I use The Vegetarian Express "La Chikky Seasoning" (vegan) or Bill's Best All Vegetable "Beaf" Seasoning (contains food yeast) because they are lower in sodium than most vegetable chicken/beef flavorings I have found. (Their websites are: http://thevegetarianexpress.com and http://www.billsbest.net/) I like to use the Worthington Low Fat FriChik Original, cut into slices or strips and added to this sauce and mixed with cooked noodles for a tasty, vegetarian mock-chicken casserole. I add the FriChick liquid to the sauce, too. (But please note that FriChik is not a vegan product.)

Time 11m

Yield 2 cups, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup vegetable oil (or vegan margarine)
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
2 cups plain soymilk (unsweetened)

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Steps:

  • Mix up the soy milk (if making it from powdered mix) in a blender.
  • Add 1/2 cup raw cashews. Blend.
  • Put oil or margarine in sauce pan and heat over medium heat. Add flour and stir with whisk. Add a little more oil if necessary.
  • As soon as flour and oil mixture begins bubbling, add soy milk and cashews to flour and oil mixture, and stir till smooth. (It is OK if cashews are not completely ground up.).
  • Add salt, flavoring and onion powder. (For cream sauce I tend to use vegetarian chicken flavoring, and for gravy, vegetarian beef flavoring.).
  • Stir well.
  • Continue to stir as it cooks and thickens, to avoid lumps.
  • When thickened and bubbling evenly, it is done.
  • It works great as a pasta sauce at this thickness. If necessary, thin slightly with water or soy milk, to consistency desired.

ULTIMATE VEGAN GRAVY



Ultimate vegan gravy image

Finish your Christmas morning efforts by reheating this make-ahead gravy. It's the perfect partner to all your favourite trimmings at the festive table

Provided by Good Food team

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 large portobello mushrooms
3 onions, unpeeled, quartered
4 carrots, unpeeled, roughly chopped
3 celery sticks, roughly chopped
1 garlic bulb, halved
2 tbsp sunflower oil
2 tbsp agave syrup
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tbsp tomato purée
2 tbsp soy sauce
100g plain flour
25g dried mushrooms
150ml ruby port
2 litres vegetable stock
3 bay leaves
small bunch of thyme

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the portobello mushrooms, onions, carrots, celery and garlic into a roasting tin, toss in the sunflower oil, then spread out into a single layer. Roast for 40 mins, undisturbed - the veg should be very slightly charred.
  • Drizzle over the agave, vinegar, tomato purée, soy and 2 tbsp water. Toss together until completely coated, then return to the oven for 5 mins until sticky and caramelised. Stir in the flour and dried mushrooms, and return to the oven for a final 10 mins.
  • If the tin is flameproof, put on the hob over a low heat, stir in the port and cook until you have a thick paste mixed in with all the ingredients. Pour over two-thirds of the stock, add the herbs, bring to a boil and cook for 10 mins. If the tin isn't flameproof, drizzle over the port, stir to loosen all the burnt bits, then tip everything into a pan and continue with the stock and herbs.
  • Turn off the heat and mash everything with a potato masher to extract as much flavour as possible. Carefully pass the contents through a sieve set over another saucepan, pushing down to release all the liquid. Add the rest of the stock and simmer until the gravy is thickened and rich. Leave to cool. To serve, simply reheat. Will keep, chilled and covered for up to three days or frozen for up to two months.

Tips:

  • Choose the right mushrooms: Cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms are great options for vegan chicken gravy. They provide a rich, earthy flavor and meaty texture.
  • Roast the mushrooms: Roasting the mushrooms before adding them to the gravy intensifies their flavor and gives them a slightly crispy texture.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The broth is the base of the gravy, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Add herbs and spices: Herbs and spices can help to enhance the flavor of the gravy. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, sage, garlic, and onion powder.
  • Thicken the gravy: If you want a thicker gravy, you can add a cornstarch slurry or a roux. A cornstarch slurry is made by mixing equal parts cornstarch and water. A roux is made by cooking equal parts flour and butter until it forms a paste.

Conclusion:

Vegan chicken gravy is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's perfect for pouring over mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or even pasta. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make a vegan chicken gravy that is sure to impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a flavorful and satisfying gravy, give this vegan chicken gravy a try.
