Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 Large onion, finely chopped
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 Carrot, finely chopped
- 1 Celery stalk, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce or tamari
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
- 3 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped carrot, and chopped celery. Sauté for 8-10 minutes until the vegetables are soft and the onion is translucent.
Stir in the gluten-free soy sauce or tamari, nutritional yeast, thyme, and rosemary. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the herbs are fragrant.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
In a small bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour with 1/4 cup of water to form a smooth paste.
Slowly add the flour paste to the boiling mixture, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
Reduce the heat and simmer the gravy for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Season the gravy with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
For a smooth gravy, blend the mixture using an immersion blender or in batches with a countertop blender, being careful with hot liquid.
Serve the gravy warm over your favorite dish. Enjoy!
