Ingredients
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or other dairy-free milk)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced or grated)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper (freshly ground)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks, about 2-3 inches each, for even cooking.
Step 2
Place the potato chunks into a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Step 3
Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and easily pierced with a knife.
Step 4
While the potatoes are cooking, heat the olive oil in a small pan over low to medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 5
When the potatoes are done cooking, drain them thoroughly and return them to the now-empty pot. Allow the potatoes to sit in the pot for 1-2 minutes to let any excess water evaporate.
Step 6
Using a potato masher or handheld mixer, mash the potatoes until smooth.
Step 7
Gradually add the sautéed garlic and olive oil mixture, along with the dairy-free milk, to the mashed potatoes. Mix until well-combined and creamy. Adjust the amount of milk if necessary to reach your desired consistency.
Step 8
Stir in the salt and black pepper. Taste the mashed potatoes and adjust seasoning as needed.
Step 9
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
Step 10
Serve warm and enjoy this comforting dairy-free side dish!
