  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 2-3 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1.5 tbsp vegetable oil (optional)
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 14 oz/400 g mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 1 Hungarian wax pepper (or 1/2 bell pepper), chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 12 tsp Hungarian sweet paprika powder
  • 1/2 cup/125 ml of vegetable broth
  • few drops of liquid smoke (optional)
  • 1/2 cup/125 ml vegan sour cream (see notes)
  • 1 cup/250 ml unsweetened plant milk
  • 1 tbsp flour (GF if needed)
  • salt, pepper

To serve:

  • cooked pasta (GF if needed) or rice
  • chopped, fresh parsley


Instructions

  1. Heat up vegetable oil in a large skillet. Once hot, add onions, and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add sliced mushrooms and pepper, and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until all liquid is evaporated. If making oil-free, use a non-stick skillet and add a few tablespoons of vegetable broth as you go.
  2. Add garlic and paprika powder, and cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Be careful, paprika turns bitter, when burned.
  3. Pour vegetable broth over cooked veggies, and add a few drops of liquid smoke. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. After 5 minutes of cooking, add vegan sour cream, and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  4. In a small bowl whisk together unsweetened plant milk and flour. Pour into Mushroom Paprikash, and mix well.
  5. Cook on, stirring, until Mushroom Paprikash thickens, about 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately over pasta or rice, with fresh parsley on top. Enjoy!

Notes

For the VEGAN SOUR CREAM try my cashew sour cream, my budget-friendly sunflower seed sour cream, or use a store-bought version, for example from Dr. Oetker or Soyananda. A very thick, unsweetened plant yogurt can work too.
