Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz mushrooms Cremini, Button, Portobello, or wild mushrooms
  • 1/2 large onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp vegan butter or olive oil
  • 1 1/4 tsp arrowroot or cornstarch or 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 3/4 tsp smoked paprika
  • 5 tbsp full-fat coconut milk or any plant-based milk
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Prepare Mushrooms: Clean and slice the mushrooms. If using wild mushrooms, rinse under cold water. For button mushrooms, wipe with a damp cloth.
  2. Sauté Onions & Garlic: In a large skillet, heat vegan butter or olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft and translucent (about 7-10 minutes). Add garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
  3. Cook Mushrooms: Add mushrooms to the pan and sauté for 7-10 minutes until browned and liquid evaporates.
  4. Make Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk vegetable broth, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir in arrowroot/cornstarch slurry (mix with water) to thicken.
  5. Combine: Pour sauce mixture over the mushrooms, simmer for 3-5 minutes, then add coconut milk. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Serve: Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • For Gluten-Free: Use arrowroot or cornstarch instead of flour.
  • Storage: Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stove with a splash of vegetable broth.
  • Add-ins: Feel free to add vegetables like carrots or leeks for extra flavor and texture.
