Killer Gravy

 

Ingredients:

 

* 1/2 medium onion, chopped

* 4-5 cloves garlic, chopped

* LOTS of olive oil

* 4 vegetarian sausage patties, chopped

* 1/4 to 1/2 cup flour

* 2-4 cups soy milk (plain flavor works best, lowfat or regular)(you

may need more, so have

* some handy)

* White wine (optional)

* LOTS of freshly ground pepper

* LOTS of salt (we use some plain and some seasoned)

 

Directions:

 

Ok, first we have to say this is a very decadent recipe, but definitely

worth it!!! There are no exact measurements for the oil and soy milk,

because consistency is what you're after when they are mixed with the

flour. You may have to adjust the amount of oil when creating your flour

paste and the amount of soy milk when adding to the paste.

 

Saute the onion and garlic with some olive oil (about 1 tsp.) in a large

sauce pan over meduim heat (about 10 mins - the onions should become

transparent)

 

Add chopped sausage patties and saute until cooked/defrosted (if frozen).

 

When cooked, set aside half of the sausage mixture, leaving as much oil in

the pan as possible. Add more olive oil (about 1/4 cup) to the pan and

continue to cook over medium heat. Add a dash of white wine (optional).

Slowly stir in 1/2 cup (approximately)of flour. You're aiming at making a

paste (roux) with the flour and oil, so you may have to add more oil as needed.

 

Stir the flour every minute or so as it browns to desired color (anywhere

from light to dark borwn is fine) - about 5 minutes.

 

Slowly whisk in as much soy milk as needed to create a thick gravy. Add the

reserved sausage mixture, a lot of salt and pepper (very important), and

continue to cook until thoroughly heated. Serve immediately over fresh

vegan biscuits!
