Vegan Gravy

This gravy tastes just like the gravy you eat at thanksgiving on your turkey and mashed potatoes, but there were no animals harmed in the making! (Just a little vegetarian brain washing right there!) Give it a try even if you don't mind harming animals!!!
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup Vegetable Oil
  • 1/3 cup Onion chopped-Any onion will do. I used yellow, white or sweet
  • 5 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup Flour all purpose
  • 4 teaspoons Nutritional Yeast
  • 4 Tablespoons Liquid Aminos or Soy Sauce
  • 2 cups vegetable broth or more to desired thickness
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in saucepan over medium heat.
  • Saute onion and garlic until soft and translucent, 5 minutes or so.
  • Add flour, nutritional yeast and liquid aminos and stir until mixed. This will become a smooth paste.
  • Whisk in the vegetable broth gradually.
  • Add sage, salt and pepper
  • Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer.
  • Stir continuously for about 10 minutes or until thickened.

Notes

This is a fairly thick gravy.  Modify by adding more broth. 
I really love this gravy.  From what I remember, over 30 years ago, it tastes very similar to turkey gravy that is served over your mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving.
