Gravy is a very easy and delicious way to add a lot of flavor to a simple dish. A plate with potatoes, vegetables and possibly a meat substitute suddenly becomes a lot more appealing. But actually it is also incredibly tasty just to dip a few slices white bread in the gravy.

There's just one challenge to eating gravy while following a plant-based diet: generally, you use the cooking liquid from a piece of meat as a base. As I showed with the miso gravy, that is not necessary at all, and you can also make a delicious gravy that is completely vegan . Even though I personally find it worthwhile to make the misojus, sometimes you want something easier. The book VEGAN by The Happy Pear ️ provides the solution, offering 3 different recipes for an easy gravy. This recipe is based on the easiest gravy of these.

Tips

• Don't have cornstarch? Potato starch or arrow root powder also works
• It is important, however, to strain the gravy you mix into the cornstarch. Otherwise the cornstarch will bind to the onion and you will get a lot of lumps.
• Still got lumps? Sieve them out at the end
