Ingredients

1 (32-ounce) bag of frozen french fries
3 tablespoons of cornstarch
4 tablespoons of water
4 tablespoons of olive oil
1 small red onion, diced
1 teaspoon of paprika
1 pint of button mushrooms, chopped
¼ cup of all-purpose flour
2 cups of vegetable broth
1 cup of plant-based milk
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons of ketchup
½ cup of chopped parsley, plus more for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the french fries according to package instructions.
While the potatoes are roasting, in a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water well and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium high heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onion and cook for 3 minutes. Add the paprika, mix well and add the mushrooms. Saute the mushrooms for 5 minutes.
Lower the heat to a medium low and whisk in the flour. Regularly mixing, cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
Add the vegetable broth, plant-based milk, salt, and pepper. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. When boiling, lower the heat, add the ketchup and cornstarch and mix until it starts to thicken. Turn off the heat, mix in the parsley, cover, and set aside until the fries are done.
When the fries are done, serve them on individual plates or on a large platter. Ladle the vegan gravy on the potatoes and sprinkle with parsley for garnish.
Serve immediately.

Notes

Use high-quality ingredients: Like rich vegetable stock and high-quality French fries (if you have the time, make your own).

For the crispiest fries: Lightly spray them with oil before baking/air frying.

For smooth vegan gravy: Blend it (with or without the mushroom slices).

Enjoy immediately: The vegan gravy will make the fries soggy fairly quickly, so enjoy it quickly once combined.
