One Pot Mushroom Stroganoff Top Tips

  • If you like the look of browned mushrooms, brown the mushrooms in a little olive oil before adding the onions, then proceed with the recipe.
  • Gluten-Free option:  Replace pasta with gluten-free pasta.
  • Don’t overcook the mushrooms: Mushrooms release a lot of moisture when cooked, so it’s important to cook them until they are tender but not mushy.

  • Use quality pasta: Choose a high-quality pasta such as DeCecco for a better texture and flavor.

FAQs

Can I use any type of mushroom for vegan mushroom stroganoff?

Yes, you can use any type of mushroom for vegan mushroom stroganoff. Some popular options are cremini, portobello, shiitake, or button mushrooms. Using a variety of mushrooms will add more depth and complexity to the flavor of the stroganoff.

Can I use non-dairy milk instead of vegan sour cream?

Description

Here’s a healthy and mouth-watering one-pot mushroom stroganoff recipe that can be on the table in under 20-30 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 12 oz mushrooms, cut into quarters
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 4 cups (10 oz) Fusilli pasta (DeCecco)
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoons vegan sour cream (WayFare Dairy Free Sour Cream)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Sauté onion in the olive oil until wilted, add garlic and mushrooms and continue to sauté for a few minutes.
  2. Add the vegetable broth, nutritional yeast and salt.
  3. Bring to a boil and add the pasta. Reduce heat to a zimmer, cook for about 9-10 minutes, until pasta is tender.
  4. Reduce heat to low, add lemon juice and vegan sour cream. Stir until combined. Adjust seasoning, salt to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • If you do not have vegan sour cream, you can make a quick cashew cream (1/4 cup cashews blended with 1/4 up water), add sparingly to taste.
 I also often add 1 teaspoon of vegan chicken-style seasoning to this dish. It is not necessary, but adds to the flavor combination.
  • If you like the look of browned mushrooms, brown the mushrooms in a little olive oil before adding the onions, then proceed with the recipe.
