Ingredients
- 1 lb mushrooms (button or cremini), sliced
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup coconut milk or cashew cream (soaked cashews blended with water)
- 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari (for gluten-free)
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 oz pasta (wide egg noodles or any pasta of choice)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
- Cook the pasta: Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, then drain and set aside.
- Sauté the onion and garlic: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Cook the mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 8-10 minutes, or until the mushrooms release their moisture and become tender.
- Make the sauce: Stir in the vegetable broth, coconut milk (or cashew cream), soy sauce, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, and thyme. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.
- Season and adjust consistency: Season with salt and pepper to taste. If the sauce gets too thick, you can add a little more vegetable broth or water to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve: Serve the creamy mushroom sauce over the cooked pasta. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and enjoy!
