Vegan Gravy

• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 6 cloves garlic squashed and minced very well
• 3 slices yellow onion chopped
• 1/2 cup white flour all-purpose
• 4 teaspoons nutritional yeast
• 4 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce or low-
• 2 cups water
• 1/2 teaspoon sage
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 6 white mushrooms sliced, optional
• flour extra, or cornstarch, optional

1. Measure the vegetable oil into a small saucepan. Cook the garlic and onion in it for about two minutes on medium or medium-low heat, until the onion is a bit tender and translucent.
2. Add the flour, yeast, and soy sauce to make a paste. Add the water gradually, stirring constantly. Bring the gravy to a boil on medium to medium-high heat, stirring constantly -- the gravy has to boil for it to thicken. Add pepper. Stir in the sliced mushrooms, if desired. Add salt, if desired.
3. If the gravy is too thin for your taste, add one or two tablespoons of flour or small amounts of cornstarch to thicken it and add home-made-looking lumps. Use a wire whisk to eliminate lumps.
4. Serve hot.
