Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 medium (finely chopped) Onion
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Dry thyme
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Water
Instructions
In a large saucepan, heat 2 cups of the vegetable broth over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic to the saucepan. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and water until you form a smooth paste.
Gradually whisk the flour paste into the simmering broth, ensuring no lumps form. Continue cooking and stirring for 2-3 minutes, allowing the mixture to thicken.
Stir in the remaining 1 cup of vegetable broth, soy sauce, dry thyme, black pepper, and salt. Mix well and let the gravy simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. If the gravy is too thick, thin it with a bit of water or additional broth.
Remove from heat and serve warm over your favorite dishes.
