Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 300 grams Cremini or button mushrooms, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried rosemary
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- to taste Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the unsalted butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and bubbling.
Add the finely chopped yellow onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until it turns translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, being careful not to let it burn.
Add the finely chopped mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their moisture and become golden brown.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour evenly over the mushroom mixture and stir well to coat the mushrooms. Cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Slowly pour in the vegetable broth while whisking constantly to ensure a smooth consistency. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Stir in the soy sauce, dried thyme, dried rosemary, black pepper, and salt to taste. Let the gravy simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the skillet from heat and taste the gravy, adjusting seasoning if needed.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
