Caramelized Mushrooms with Onion and White Wine – Vegan version

Heat the canola oil in the same pan over medium heat.

Add the onion and fry for 10 minutes, stirring, until the onion is translucent and starting to brown.
⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStove
💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.
8
Add the garlic and fry about 30 seconds to 1 minute, just until fragrant. Don't let the garlic brown.
⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStove
💡Garlic burns quickly and turns bitter. Add it only after the onion has softened, over medium heat, and add the next ingredient as soon as it smells fragrant.

Return the mushrooms to the pan, add the thyme and pour in the wine.
