This excellent vegan gravy features caramelized mushrooms and a little soy sauce for depth of flavor, making it good enough to serve to your meat-eating guests, too. Just be sure to use a good-quality vegetable stock, preferably one you've made yourself. You can simmer the gravy up to five days ahead and store it in the fridge. Reheat just before serving.

MMMMM...MUSHROOM GRAVY (VEGAN)



Mmmmm...mushroom Gravy (Vegan) image

I made this a few weeks ago to go with a veggie loaf - and I could have eaten the entire batch myself....so good! Took it to a family dinner, where there was one gravy for the meat eaters, and this one for the non. My SIL referred to it as the "lumpy" one. Well, yes, it's a bit chunky with all the delicious mushrooms. It made enough to freeze a cup or so for future use. If you're preparing in advance it does get quite thick, so just thin out with some wine or more stock when the time comes to use it. This is from 'Vegan a Go Go'.

VEGAN MUSHROOM GRAVY



Vegan Mushroom Gravy image

An undetectably vegan, thick and rich gravy. Mushrooms and shallots sautéed in olive oil and vegan butter, joined by sherry, thyme, and vegetable broth. The perfect gravy for special occasions - or any ol' time!

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons vegan butter (I like Melt or Earth Balance)
1 medium shallot (peeled and diced (about 1/3 cup))
1/2 pound 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced (about 2 cups)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper + more to taste
2 tablespoons dry sherry
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (lightly chopped)
2 teaspoons soy sauce or Tamari

Steps:

  • Set a 12-inch skillet over medium-low heat. Add olive oil and vegan butter. When the butter has melted, add the shallot, mushrooms, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Saute shallot and mushroom, stirring occasionally, until tender and the moisture has cooked off, 10-15 minutes.
  • Add sherry and cook, stirring, until the liquid has cooked off, about 1 minute.
  • Add flour. Cook, stirring frequently, for three minutes.
  • Slowly pour in the vegetable broth while stirring. Add the thyme and soy sauce or Tamari. Bring to a low boil and let cook until thickened, 3-4 minutes. The gravy might seem a little thin at first, but it will thicken up as it sits and cools. If your gravy seems too thick, you can stir in a bit of broth.
  • Taste and add more salt and pepper if you like.
  • Serve immediately or let cool and refrigerate or freeze until it's time to serve. Gravy can be warmed over low heat on the stovetop. You may wish to add a bit of broth when reheating to thin it out.

VEGAN GRILLERS WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY



Vegan Grillers With Mushroom Gravy image

When I first became vegan, I craved meat & potatoes and gravy, this craving is the inspiration for this recipe. The gravy has a rich lemon and thyme flavor that compliments the vegan griller (burger) patties. I use Morningstar; I find they have a texture similar to meatloaf after simmering. I use cremini mushroom because I enjoy the meaty woodsy flavor of them over button mushrooms, and they give the gravy a nice dark color. But, you can use the mushroom of your choice. I would serve this gravy with a side of mash potaotes, but you could also serve with yams.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups cremini mushrooms
4 vegan burgers

1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
