  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make gravy without meat? Prepare your food. Use sour cream of any fat content, but do not forget that the calorie content of the dish will depend on the fat content of the products you use.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Place the butter in a saucepan and melt it over low heat. If you use refined vegetable oil instead of butter, you will get a lean version of the gravy.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Peel the onions. Rinse it, as well as the knife, with cold water so that when cutting the onion juice does not irritate the mucous membrane of the eye so much. Finely chop the onion. Add to the saucepan and simmer in oil until transparent. Instead of onions, you can use the white part of a leek or shallot.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    To make the gravy thick, add premium wheat flour and mix well. Lightly fry it until golden. Make the fire as low as possible and constantly stir the flour so that it does not burn.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Remove the saucepan from the stove. Let the contents cool slightly. Pour in warm water. To avoid lumps forming, keep the water and flour mixture warm and at approximately the same temperature. Mix everything well. If the appearance of lumps still cannot be avoided, rub the mixture through a sieve.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Return the pan with the sauce to the stove and bring it to a boil. When the gravy boils, add tomato paste. Stir again and bring everything to a boil.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    Season the resulting sauce with sour cream, bring to a boil and remove from heat. The sauce is ready. Sour cream can be perfectly replaced by natural thick yogurt without additives or cream with a fat content of 20%. To prepare a lean version, do not add dairy products.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    An excellent gravy that goes well with almost all main courses and side dishes: cutlets and meatballs, boiled and fried meat, game and fish. When serving gravy with side dishes, pour it on top. Boiled pasta, buckwheat, mashed potatoes, stewed fluffy rice, and wheat porridge will be especially tasty with it.

My husband cooked some pasta for himself and wanted some gravy. It’s good that everything is available on the site instantly. Within a minute I found a recipe for Meatless Gravy for Buckwheat and Rice and cooked it right away. The gravy turned out so delicious, it was simply delicious! Instead of water, I took thick meat broth, already with spices. Now I will cook it all the time, it is universal, not only with side dishes, but also with meat. Cook with pleasure! Thank you to the author for the simple and delicious recipe!
