Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic to the pan. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the sliced cremini mushrooms to the pan and cook until they release their moisture and begin to brown, about 7 minutes.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour with 1/4 cup of the vegetable broth until smooth.

Step 5

Add the flour mixture to the pan, stirring constantly to avoid lumps for about 2 minutes.

Step 6

Slowly pour in the remaining vegetable broth while stirring continuously to create a smooth mixture.

Step 7

Stir in 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper.

Step 8

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, reduce the heat to low, and continue cooking until the gravy thickens, about 5 minutes.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot.
