Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Shallot
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup White wine
- 1 cup Vegetable broth
- 1 cup Full-fat coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch

Instructions
Finely chop the shallot and garlic cloves and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped shallot to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute, being careful not to burn it.
Pour in the white wine, and allow it to simmer until it has reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
Add the vegetable broth, coconut milk, nutritional yeast, Dijon mustard, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper to the saucepan.
Stir well to combine all the ingredients, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to form a slurry.
Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering sauce to thicken it.
Continue to simmer and stir the sauce for an additional 4-5 minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Remove from heat and serve over your choice of meat, roasted vegetables, or pasta.
