Instructions

1. Make cashew cream: blend soaked cashews with 3/4 cup (180 ml) warm water until smooth; set aside.
2. Heat olive oil and vegan butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until softened, 5–7 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute.
3. Add sliced cremini mushrooms and cook until browned and liquid evaporates, about 8–10 minutes. Stir in tomato paste and smoked paprika and cook 1 minute.
4. Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and stir to coat, cooking 1–2 minutes. Slowly pour in wine, scraping browned bits, then add vegetable broth, Dijon mustard, and soy sauce; simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
5. Stir in cashew cream, reduce heat to low, and simmer gently until sauce is creamy and thickened, 3–5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
6. Serve stroganoff over cooked noodles or rice and garnish with chopped dill or parsley.
