Vegan Mashed Potatoes
Creamy and buttery mashed potatoes made of only 4 ingredients. The best side dish for every meal, easy and simple recipe.
Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 600 g floury potatoes
- 50 g vegan butter or margarine
- 300 ml thick plantbased milk for example soy or oat milk
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Peel the raw potatoes, wash them briefly and cut them into large cubes.
- Cook the potatoes in salt water until soft (15-20 minutes) and strain them off. Add the pot with the potatoes to the stove for another minute, so that the rest of the water can evaporate. Then take it off the stove.
- Heat the vegan milk.
- Press the hot potatoes through the potato press. Don't use a blender for this step. Then stir in the butter and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
- Add the hot milk gradually with a whisk until the mashed potatoes become fluffy. The portional addition of the milk is important, as the amount of starch in the potatoes can vary and therefore also the amount of milk needed.
- Now you should keep the puree warm until you serve it, preferably by filling it in a bowl, closing it with foil and putting it on a slightly simmering water bath. When the puree gets too cold, it loses its creaminess.
- Serve the mashed potatoes with melted vegan butter and chopped parsley.
