The Best Easy Vegan Gravy


We think that gravy really does make a centrepiece dinner such as a wellington complete. This gravy is super-tasty, easy, and quick to make too!

Takes 10 minutes

Serves 4

Ingredients
 

  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 onion
  • 500 ml vegetable stock
  • 4 tbsp tamari
  • 4 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 2 tsp garlic powder (or 4 cloves, super finely chopped)
  • 1 pinch of black pepper
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp thickening agent (cornstarch, arrowroot, rice flour, tapioca powder or plain white flour)

Instructions
 

  • Roughly chop the onion.
  • Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a medium-sized non-stick saucepan on high heat.
  • Add the onion, reduce the heat to medium, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring regularly, until the onions start to turn golden.
  • Mix the stock, tamari, garlic powder, nutritional yeast and black pepper in a large  jug, then pour into the pan.
  • Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer.
  • Remove 5 tablespoons of the sauce to a jug and sift in the thickening agent, whisking well so it is fully incorporated, and add back into the pan.
  • Add the olive oil to the pan and simmer for 3-4 minutes until it thickens, whisking occasionally.
  • Sieve out the onions before serving with your Christmas Wellington or other festive favourites!

If you are looking for the ultimate vegan gravy to level up your roast dinner, look no further. This is our go to plant based gravy and we honestly make it all year round. It is rich, savoury, silky, super comforting and tastes every bit as delicious as traditional gravy, only it is totally dairy free and made from wholesome plant goodness.

We love this for cosy Sunday lunches, family dinners, Christmas feasts, Thanksgiving spreads and any day that needs a bit of warm, delicious magic poured all over it. This gravy is sensational with vegan wellington, roast potatoes, creamy mashed potatoes, veggies, nut roasts, lentil loaf or anything you would normally drown in gravy. It makes every plate feel like a celebration.

The best part is how quick and simple it is. Just a few everyday ingredients like onion, tamari, nutritional yeast and vegetable stock come together to create a deep, savoury, umami packed gravy that has everyone asking for seconds. You can easily make it gluten free, it reheats beautifully and it is always a hit with vegans and non vegans alike. Our families adore this recipe and we are pretty sure yours will too.

So grab a pan, turn on the heat and get ready to make a seriously tasty vegan gravy that brings comfort, flavour and smiles to every meal. We cannot wait for you to try this one.
