Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 small shallots
- 3 cloves garlic
- 250 grams button mushrooms
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 150 milliliters white wine
- 250 milliliters vegetable broth
- 200 milliliters coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Finely dice the shallots and mince the garlic cloves. Clean and slice the button mushrooms thinly.
In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced shallots and sauté for about 3 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the saucepan, and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and beginning to brown.
Stir in the thyme, then pour in the white wine. Increase the heat to medium-high and let it simmer until the wine is reduced by half, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the vegetable broth and coconut milk to the saucepan, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a little bit of cold water to form a slurry. Gradually add the slurry to the simmering sauce while stirring continuously. This will help thicken the sauce.
Continue to simmer the sauce for another 5 minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.
Remove from heat. Stir in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Use immediately to top your favorite dishes, or let it cool and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
