Gather the following ingredients
For vegan mushroom stroganoff, gather two tablespoons olive oil, one large onion (finely chopped), three cloves garlic (minced), 500 grams mushrooms (sliced), two tablespoons soy sauce, one tablespoon paprika, 250 milliliters vegetable broth, and 200 milliliters coconut milk or plant-based cream. Add salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with pasta or rice.
Preparing the vegetables
Begin by heating the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent and softens slightly, which should take about five minutes. Next, add the minced garlic to the pan and saute for another minute until fragrant. These steps lay down a flavorful foundation for our stroganoff.
Cooking the mushrooms
Increase the heat to medium-high, and then add the sliced mushrooms to the pan with the onions and garlic. Cook them until they are golden brown and have fully released their moisture, which should take about eight minutes. During the last minute of cooking, stir in soy sauce and paprika to ensure all mushrooms are evenly coated with these seasonings.
Creating the sauce
Turn the heat down to medium. Carefully pour the vegetable broth into the pan, followed by coconut milk or your selected plant-based cream, blending with the mushrooms. Stir everything thoroughly to combine into a smooth sauce. Allow this mixture to simmer gently for about 10 minutes. It's during this simmering process that the sauce will start to thicken up nicely, achieving the desired consistency.
Final touches and serving
Season your mushroom stroganoff with salt and pepper according to your taste preference right before serving it hot over cooked pasta or rice. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for an added touch of color and freshness. This vegan mushroom stroganoff not only offers a comforting meal but also ensures that those following plant-based diets can enjoy classic flavors without compromise.
