White Bean Stroganoff: A Cozy, Comforting Twist on Tradition
This White Bean Stroganoff offers a cozy, comforting twist on tradition with creamy white beans and savory mushrooms.
Equipment
- large skillet
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon oil or use 2-3 tablespoon broth to sauté
- ½ cup chopped onion
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 10 ounces thinly sliced mushrooms such as portobello, white, cremini, or other mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce use tamari for gluten-free
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- ½ to 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard depending on how much of the mustard flavor you want in the sauce
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon salt less or more as needed
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ⅓ cup vegan sour cream or vegan yogurt or a thick non-dairy cream
- 2 tablespoons vegan parmesan
- ½ to 1 cup water or vegetable broth
- 15 ounce can white beans drained, or 1 ½ cups of cooked white beans, such as great northern beans, cannellini beans, butter beans or other white beans of choice or use chickpeas or lentils
For Garnish
- more vegan parmesan
- pepper flakes
- chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, basil, or dill
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat, add the oil, and then add the onion and garlic and a good pinch of salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is translucent and starting to turn golden. Add splashes of water to help the onion cook evenly. 4 to 5 minutes.
- Add in the mushrooms and another good pinch of salt, and cook for a minute. Then, mix in the soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard. Mix really well, and continue to cook until the mushrooms are al dente, another 5 to 7 minutes. If the pan is drying out too much, you can cover the pan to retain moisture and to help the mushrooms cook faster.
- Now, mix in thyme, salt, pepper. Mix in the non-dairy yogurt/sour cream and vegan Parmesan.
- Add in ½ cup of the water or broth and all of the beans, tossing well, then cover and cook for 6 to 8 minutes.
- Taste and adjust salt and flavor. Add more of the water or broth, if you want the beans to be saucier, or cook for a few minutes longer without the lid, if you want the sauce to thicken a lot. The sauce thickens as it cools, so you want to adjust accordingly.
- Switch off the heat, garnish with some vegan Parmesan, pepper flakes, and herbs of choice. Serve with fresh bread, toasted bread, or garlic bread or other sides of choice. You can also serve this over pasta or baked potato or mashed potatoes.
- Store refrigerated for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stove or microwave. Add non-dairy milk if the sauce has thickened too much.
Notes
This recipe is nut-free if you use a nut-free vegan yogurt. It is gluten-free, if you use tamari instead of soy sauce. To make it soy-free, use soy-free yogurt and vegan Parmesan and omit the soy sauce and add in 2 to 3 tablespoons of white wine instead.
