Ingredients

• 6 pieces medium potatoes
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk
• 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons chives, finely chopped

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes. Rinse under cold water and set aside.

Step 2

In a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the potato cubes to the pot and stir to coat with the garlic-infused oil. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the almond milk, nutritional yeast, and cornstarch until well blended.

Step 5

Pour the almond milk mixture over the potatoes in the pot. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Add the fresh thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir to incorporate the herbs evenly.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the potatoes simmer for 30-35 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Check the potatoes for doneness by piercing with a fork; they should be tender but not mushy.

Step 9

Once the potatoes are cooked through, uncover the pot, and increase the heat to medium-high to thicken the sauce. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

Step 10

Remove from heat, sprinkle with chopped chives, and give a final stir before serving. Enjoy your creamy and herbaceous dairy-free potatoes!
