Notes

Please remember to leave comments below the recipe after cooking x
You can substitute the butter with olive oil for a dairy free option.
For an onion gravy, omit the mushrooms and increase onion to 200 g or 7 oz thickly sliced brown onion. The colour does come from the mushrooms, so expect a lighter gravy.
You can use vegetable stock concentrate for a vegetarian version, however be aware that the colour may be lighter.
Omit the Tapioca Flour for a LCHF version, simply cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Bellini Users

  1. Would you need to increase cooking time if you double it?

    I made a single batch and it was delicious, could eat it on its own!

  2. 5 stars
    Absolutely beautifully filled with flavour
    Thank you once again for bringing so much flavour to our table Skinnmixers xxx

  3. Flavour is amaaaazing but there’s not enough liquid for my liking. It’s more mushrooms than gravy. I’ll make it again and next time add a little extra water & see if that helps 🙂

  4. Oh my lordy. This mushroom gravy is to die for. I might even use for when I make beef and Mushroom pies. Thank you Nik xx

  5. 5 stars
    I have been wanting to try this gravy for ages, & last night I did (we were out of cafe de Paris butter & had an excess supply of mushrooms!). So, yum! I didn’t blend at the end as we like a chunky mushroom gravy. Thank u for another fabulous recipe! Lx

    1. I was wondering the same thing. I did see a comment saying it freezes and defrosts beautifully, so I’m going to freeze mine for later.

  6. Been wanting to make this for ages. Craving some red meat so decided I needed mushroom gravy and if could only be Skinnymixers. It did not disappoint. Smelt amazing cooking and tastes even better.

    Thank you Nikalene. 💕

  7. This was really nice. I added some truffle salt at the end and only used 1 teaspoon of cornflour and that was more than enough. Thanks for a winner!

  8. I think this could do with a bit of sherry and more garlic. While the consistency of the gravy was beautiful, the taste was a tad bland.

  9. This sauce I have made a couple of times and it is just OMG !! So good it is delishes in pies with ground up cooked beef 😋

  10. Sooooo good, it’s definitely worth a full bowl lick with some bread!!
    Gonna use over bangers & mash as requested by Mr 4!!

  11. Yum, yum yum!! Have made this several times to use on steaks. Last night made it to use as a base on a mushroom pizza. We added mozzarella cheese, chopped thyme, sliced portobello mushrooms and slivers of salami. It was delicious!!

  12. Oh wow. Loved this sooo much. I used Worcestershire Sauce instead of soy sauce. Still amazing. Thanks Nic x

  13. OMG so yummy! I blitz mine at the end because I have one kiddie that doesn’t like the texture of mushies, I kept scooping out spoonfuls whilst I was cooking rest of meal, I was eating it like soup lol. Big thumbs up!

  14. Absolutely delicious, quick and easy, following the Bellini instructions This sauce can accompany anything. I didn’t do high speed at end, preferring to leave the mushrooms chunky. Will become my go to recipe for sure

  15. such a tasty recipe! I’ve subbed in any stock paste in place of the beef, and added in some dried mushrooms if I’ve not had enough fresh, and it’s still great. I’ve also used just regular button mushrooms… all options still very tasty. Thank you Nik

  16. Oh yum! I’m on a challenge, so this used very sparingly on my turkey & cauliflower mash turned a bland meal into an absolutely delicious meal, thanks!

  17. Really enjoyed the mushroom sauce. Was very easy. Made it without the Tapioca so was a little runnier but made no difference to the taste.

  18. OMG how delicious is this recipe? My kids were craving a mushroom sauce that they have had several times at a particular restaurant. The only problem is that the restaurant is interstate. So I searched the web and came across this one. Made it and with all fingers and toes crossed hoping I’d filled their craving. It was awarded the “OMG mum, it’s better than the restaurant ones. Definitely a keeper for the recipe file.”
    So thank you for a great recipe.

  19. This was brilliant and so tasty! I left out the flour for a LCHF version and it was great, really lovely on a steak – thanks Nik!!!

  20. Yum! This was perfect. Didn’t add any flour as I felt it didn’t need it as there wasn’t really any liquid, and didn’t blend at the end – just nice chunky mushrooms. Made with vegie stock as well – it was sooo good.

  21. Made tonight to serve with cold roast lamb. Made the onion version and it was very nice. I cooked for the extra 5 minutes but didn’t need this long.

  22. This is a beautiful gravy, I didn’t blitz because we love mushrooms.
    I can see this being a weekly sauce I our household!
    Awesome flavour
    Thank you

  23. I accidentally added the flour with the ingredients in the prior step. Hopefully it still works. Any tips? My plan is to go on as normal… 😬

  24. This was so good!! The BEST gravy ever!! I halved the recipe because I only had 200g of mushrooms and used vege stock paste but was still delicious!

  25. We really enjoyed this gravy tonight, though I would like to try it again without blitzing it as the colour put the kids off a bit, until they tried it and realised it was delicious! Was very tasty and easy. I used tapioca flour and would also like to try again like other comments suggested to just cook longer with MC off as I had to thin mine down with more stock.
    Thanks for a quick and easy gravy recipe!

  26. Another success! Whole family loved it. I have made a few more batches and frozen in serves for emergencies! Defrosts beautifully.

  27. I made this to go with dinosaur steaks.
    I didn’t have 400g mushrooms only 200g but the also added 1/2 small tin of green peppercorns
    I also didn’t blend it at the end, we like the chunky mushroom vibe!
    Seriously delish sauce. Hubby loved it and he is hard to please when it comes to sauces!
    This will be my go to sauce. Thanks Nik, another winner 😊

  28. I made this tonight whilst my whole chicken and vegs (cooked in the varoma and rice basket) were browning off in the oven. I used chicken stock paste. It was terrific.

  29. I’ve only had my Thermomix for a week, so still have my ‘training wheels’ on, however I made this last night to go with steak and it was amazing!! I skipped the blending step at the end – thanks for the recipe!

  30. I love this gravy! Has anyone tried making it ahead of time and then re-heating? Just wonder if this works well or is it best to make fresh?

  31. I made this as hubby only ever has mushroom sauce on steak, great taste but found it really runny. I didn’t have 400g of mushy so maybe that had something to do with it.?

  32. I make this regularly and conveniently cook my Veges in the Varoma at the same time. Always a winner with Chicken or Steak 😊

  33. Absolutely delish!! Cooked it with mushrooms and no flour. Blended at the end and the mushrooms gave it the perfect thickness. The colour was a little undesirable but we all loved it!

  34. Oh my this is AMAZING! This will be my go to sauce from now on! Keep sneaking some whilst steak is cooking. Thank you for another awesome recipe.

  35. Loved this gravy! I added a teaspoon of mushroom powder, which I made from various dried mushrooms from the health food shop or supermarket (eg porcini). Place any 2 packs in thermomix bowl then on speed 9 until it is a fine powder and store in air tight container.

  36. Amazing! My hubby won’t let me make any other gravy anymore! I add about 300g thickened cream at the dad mushrooms stage and double the corn flour 🙂

  37. A lovely flavoursome gravy. I didn’t have onion, so subbed in leek and only had chicken stock, so subbed that too. Really great. I will definitely make again and will also try blending for a smooth gravy at some point.

  38. I love this Mushroom Gravy, it’s become a firm favourite in our home.
    Perfect accompaniment to Schnitzel!
    Thanks, (again), Nik!

  39. Really liked this. So easy to do with ingredients I always have in the house. Had it with steak, mashed sweet potato and some steamed veg. Hubby liked it too! Thanks for the recipe.

  40. Blitzed leftover lamb roast from the night before and use this gravy to make a yummy shepherds pie. A little thick for this purpose but I just added a little extra water to the pan. Definitely will use again for steak or other meat toppings 🙂

  41. I have done the beef/mushroom version a few times now and love it! Tonight I used chicken concentrate and onions. We had visitors whom ate it by the spoonful !

  42. Thermomix gravy is something I hadn’t brought myself to trying… Just couldn’t go past gravox. But with trying to cut out numbers and convert our diets alot I thought I’d give this one a go but with a twist. Cooked roast chicken in the Varoma so used the juices with a tbsp of vegge stock concentrate. Also skipped the mushrooms as unfortunately the step kids don’t eat them. Fingers are crossed for a good gravy.

  43. I love this sauce! I’m garlic and onion free and unless I’m in a hurry I skip the tapioca. That makes this a one step saice… I just throw everything in and cook for 18 minutes varoma speed 1 with the MC off when there is 8 minutes remaining.

    Its a great base to modify too. I omit mushrooms and replace half of the stock (100ml) with red wine to make a red wine sauce. I also omit mushrooms and use 1 tsp cracked black pepper to make a pepper sauce. I’ve also made a red wine pepper sauce (LOL) doing both these things and its great!

    I’ve also doubled my variations without mushrooms and cooked 22 minutes varoma spd 1 with MC off at 10 minutes remaining with success.

  44. Sooooo good. I was craving mushrooms last Nte and thought I’d give this a go. I didn’t have 400g mushies but didn’t realise this til after I’d added the initial ingredients (I probably only had about 200g) but just went on to cook it for 5 mins longer (with tapioca flour added) and it was perfect!
    Will be a staple gravy in our home. Thanks Nikalene!

  45. Made this gravy for the first time today and it won’t be the last!! So easy to make and really yummy! Beautiful flavour 🙂

  46. i made the onion version with vege stock, it was lovely but would like to try it with meat stock as I think that will give it a fuller flavour

  47. This gravy was superb with no cornflour/tapioca flour and cooked for 5 extra mins with the mc off. Thanks for the recipe and guidance about avoiding the flour, you’re a superstar!

  48. I made this last night with onions instead of mushrooms and served it on top of paleo rissoles. Really, really good!

  49. I just made this sauce for chicken schnitzel.
    Oh my goodness….it’s so delicious!!!
    Thanks for creating and sharing a healthy gravy recipe with us all 🙂

  50. Oh my, made this mushroom gravy tonight and it was delightful. Topped off the steak & vege beautifully, with no nasty additives or preservatives… Thanks for the fantastic recipe Nikalene…

  51. I loved this gravy a perfect partner for our steak tonight. We used vege stock and the flavours are amazing. Thanks

  52. This mushroom gravy is fantastic!! As good as if not better than what we used to make in the pub. Highly recommend this recipe. If you are a gravy fan like me, you won’t be disappointed!! 🙂
