Creamy Garlic Mashed Potatoes Dairy Free
- STOVE TOP AND OVEN
- 1 small Frying Pan
- 1 Large Pot and lid
- 1 Large Strainer
- Potato Masher or Hand Blender
- 1 lbs Yellow potato's, approximately 3 large or 8-10 small, peeled and cut into large chunks.
- 4 garlic cloves crushed
- 1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil to cook the garlic
- 5 – 8 Tbsp Vegan Butter – or regular Organic Butter (depending on how creamy tasting you would like it. Use 5 tbsp is serving it with gravy.)
- ½ tps Rosemary crushed – use Mortar & Pestle if possible
- 1 Pinch ground himalysan or sea salt
- ½ tsp white or black ground pepper
- 1 cup alternative milk of choice (I used unsweetened Oat milk or Soy milk.)
-
Peel, rinse, and chop the potatoes and add them to a large size pot.
-
Add water to the level that just covers the potatoes. Set on the stove burner and turn heat to high. Bring water to a boil, and turn down to simmer so the water doesn't bubble over. Cover if you want.
-
Check potatoes at 10 – 15 minutes – until a fork goes in smoothly. Once done, strain the potatoes from the water using the Large strainer in the sink.
-
Mash or hand blend the potato's with the Alternative Milk until potatoes are creamy and smooth. You can add in a little more alternative milk to adjust the consistency to your smooth liking.
-
Use the small frying pan and place it on stove top to heat medium low setting. Add the Butter, crushed garlic, crushed Rosemary, and pepper. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes. Add in the optional salt. Remove from heat and pour butter garlic into the mashed potatoes.
-
If the potato's are cold, place in them in an oven at 250F for 10min in the pan. Try them to make sure they are heated to your liking.
-
Keep covered until ready to serve.
