Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 200 grams fresh mushrooms, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
Instructions
Melt the butter in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped mushrooms and minced garlic to the pan. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms release their moisture and begin to brown.
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream and unsweetened almond milk. Stir gently until mixed.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with the cold water until smooth. Gradually add this mixture into the sauce, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
Increase the heat to medium and continue stirring until the sauce begins to thicken, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme leaves. Stir well to combine.
Once the sauce reaches your desired consistency, remove from heat.
Serve immediately over your favorite dish, or allow to cool slightly and use as a dipping sauce.
