Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 medium shallots, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • About 10 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps sliced into thin strips
  • 1/4 cup dry red wine
  • 3 cup vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 3 tablespoons vegan butter (I used Earth Balance)
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add shallot to pan and cook for about 8 minutes until softened. Add rosemary, salt, and mushrooms. Cook, while stirring occasionally, for about 8 to 10 minutes, until mushrooms have browned. Add wine and cook for a minute or so or until liquid almost evaporates. Pour in vegetable broth and simmer until reduced to about 2 cups, about 12 to 15 minutes. Combine flour, nutritional yeast, tamari, and water in a bowl, stirring until smooth. Add to pan and return to boil. Reduce heat and simmer 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove from heat. Stir in vegan butter. Thin with a little water or broth to desired consistency. Finish with freshly ground black pepper.
