Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 large Onion, finely chopped
• 2 medium Carrots, diced
• 2 Celery stalks, diced
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup Mushrooms, finely chopped
• 4 cups Gluten-free vegetable broth
• 1 Bay leaf
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

In a large saucepan or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the onion, carrots, and celery, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and mushrooms and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms release their juices.

Step 4

Sprinkle the gluten-free all-purpose flour over the vegetable mixture and stir well to coat all the ingredients.

Step 5

Slowly pour in the gluten-free vegetable broth while constantly stirring to prevent lumps from forming.

Step 6

Add the bay leaf, fresh thyme leaves, salt, black pepper, and tamari sauce. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.

Step 8

Remove the bay leaf and adjust seasoning if necessary. If the gravy is too thick, you can add a bit more broth or water until the desired consistency is reached.

Step 9

Stir in the fresh parsley just before serving for an added burst of flavor.

Step 10

Serve hot over your favorite dishes and enjoy!
