These french dip sandwiches are made with vegan roast beef, layered with sauteed mushrooms and onions, and topped with vegan horsey sauce. Then, dip these vegan french dip sandwiches in vegan au jus!
In a saucepan, saute the shallot and onion until translucent.
Add a little of the vegetable broth if the shallots and onions begin to stick.
Then add the rest of the ingredients, bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to simmer.
Sauteeing the mushrooms and onions
In a large non-stick skillet, combine the minced garlic and sliced onions.
Saute on medium-low until the onions turn translucent.
Add the mushrooms and cook until the onions appear to brown, and then add a little vegetable broth and move the onions and mushrooms around the pan with a skillet.
Add more vegetable broth as the onions and mushrooms brown and caramelize.
Set aside.
Assembling the Sandwich
Toast the ciabatta buns.
Add pieces of vegan roast beef to the bottom bun.
Now, add sauteed mushrooms and onions.
Smother with vegan horsey sauce or your favorite condiment.
Top with the other toasted bun.
Cut each sandwich in half.
Serve with a bowl of hot au jus dipping sauce.
Notes
When shopping for pure horseradish, look at the label. Prepared horseradish sauce contains cream and is not vegan. Pure horseradish, however, is made with horseradish, vinegar, and salt.
