Vegan Mushroom Stew

Vegan Mushroom Stew

Ingredients:

• 1 lb of mushrooms (sliced)
• 1 onion (chopped)
• 3 cloves of garlic (minced)
• 2 tbsp of olive oil
• 2 cups of vegetable broth
• 1 tbsp of soy sauce
• 1 tbsp of tomato paste
• 1 tsp of dried thyme
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tbsp of cornstarch

Instructions:

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
2. Add the sliced mushrooms to the pot and stir. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms have released their liquid and begin to brown.
3. Add the vegetable broth, soy sauce, tomato paste, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine, and bring the mixture to a boil.
4. Once the stew comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water. Add this mixture to the stew and stir well.
6. Continue to cook the stew for another 5-10 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
7. Serve the stew hot with your favorite bread or over rice.
