Instructions

Get Started

1. Cook pasta, rice, or prepare mashed potatoes according to package directions.

2. While the pasta or rice cooks, start the Mushroom Stroganoff.
   

Mushroom Base

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

2. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

3. Add sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their liquid and start to brown, about 8-10 minutes.

4. If using, add sherry or red wine and cook for 1 minute more, allowing the liquid to reduce slightly.

5. Stir in thyme and smoked paprika, season with salt and pepper. Remove from skillet and set aside.
   

Creamy Sauce

1. In the same skillet, melt vegan butter over medium heat.

2. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to create a roux.

3. Gradually whisk in vegetable broth, ensuring there are no lumps.

4. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens.

5. Stir in coconut milk, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. Add the cooked mushrooms to the sauce and stir to combine.
   

Serve

1. Serve the Mushroom Stroganoff over hot pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.

2. Garnish with fresh parsley.
   

Tips

• For a deeper flavor, use a combination of mushrooms like oyster, portobello, and maitake.

• Adjust the amount of Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce to your taste.

• If you don't have coconut milk, use other plant-based cream.
  

For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free all-purpose flour and serve over rice or mashed potatoes.
