🍄 Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil or vegan butter

- 12 oz (340 g) mushrooms (cremini, button, or mixed), sliced
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 1 cup unsweetened plant-based cream (like cashew, oat, or coconut)
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
👩🍳 Instructions
- Sauté aromatics: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook until soft and golden. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
- Cook mushrooms: Add mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and begin to brown.
- Season: Stir in thyme, smoked paprika, soy sauce, and mustard. Mix well.
- Make it creamy: Pour in the broth and simmer for 5–7 minutes. Then add plant-based cream and stir until thick and silky. If you want it thicker, whisk cornstarch into a bit of water and stir it in.
- Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley and serve over cooked pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.
🌿 Tips
- Add a splash of white wine before the broth for extra depth.
- For gluten-free: use tamari instead of soy sauce.
- Try it with lentil or chickpea pasta for extra protein.
