Mushroom Gravy
Mushroom gravy from scratch is flavorful, simple, and hearty! Serve alongside mashed potatoes, meat, or bread for a complete meal.
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ⅓ cup onion thinly sliced
- 12 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
- 1-2 cloves garlic minced
- Kosher salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons dry red wine or additional broth
- 2 - 2 ½ cups low-sodium broth any type
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
Instructions
- In a large saucepan set over medium-high heat, melt the butter.
- Add the onion and saute for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the mushrooms and saute for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and mostly free of liquid. Stir in the garlic, season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
- Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir gently for 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with the red wine, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits that have stuck to the bottom of the pan.
- Stir 2 cups of broth and bring the mixture to boil for 3-5 minutes, or until it thickens. Add the thyme, taste, and season with additional salt and pepper if desired. You can also add more broth, up to an additional ½ cup, if you’d like a thinner gravy.
