A creamy, hearty, and delicious twist on the classic Russian dish, this Keto Vegan Mushroom Stroganoff serves up all the rich flavors without the carbs. Perfect for anyone following a ketogenic and plant-based diet.
2tablespoonsarrowroot powder or xanthan gum for thickening (optional)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook until the mushrooms have released their moisture and started to brown, around 10 minutes.
Stir in the tamari sauce (or coconut aminos), lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. Cook for another 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let cook for 5 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the coconut milk and nutritional yeast until well combined. If using arrowroot powder or xanthan gum, whisk it in now to thicken the sauce. Season with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to taste.
Continue to cook on low heat for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the stroganoff has thickened to your liking.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
For a nuttier flavor, consider adding a handful of toasted, slivered almonds on top before serving.If you're not strictly vegan and are okay with incorporating alcohol, a splash of white wine added with the vegetable broth can enhance the depth of flavor.Ensure your tamari sauce or coconut aminos are gluten-free if you're avoiding gluten.Serve over a bed of cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, or shirataki noodles for a complete keto meal.
