Easy super-flavorful Gravy

Yes, of course you can just make your standard mushroom gravy, but if you're ready to try something different, that packs a punch and gives you the feeling of home, give this one a try. Using just a few pantry ingredients and about 30 minutes of your time, this comes together quickly.

Ingredients

• 2–3 tbsp of oats, toasted until browned in dry pan first!

• 1/2 pound of fresh or 5 dried mushrooms (any kind, shitake, button, portabella)

• 1 tbsp garlic powder or 4 diced garlic cloves

• 1 tbsp of onion powder or 1/2 sliced onion

• 2 tbsp tomato paste

• 1 tbsp veg bouillon

• 1 tbsp miso paste or marmite

• 1 tbsp of liquid amino or soy sauce

• 2 cups of water

• 1/4 cup of sherry, red wine, dry white wine or white vermouth

• Optional: 1/2 head of cauliflower

Method

• In a medium size pot, on medium heat, toast oats first, then add fresh mushrooms and fresh aromatics and tomato paste, stir and cook for 4–5 minutes.

• Deglaze by adding water. Add all other ingredients except for alcohol, scrape bottom of the pot and cook for 15–20 minutes.

• Add everything including additional ingredient into the blender cup and blend or keep in pot, using an immersion blender, blend until smooth consistency (ensure that heat is OFF). If using anything less than a Vitamix or Blendtech, strain sauce through a strainer, add back into the pot, heat up until thickened.

• Serve with anything you’d usually enjoy gravy with or just over boiled potatoes.
