Ingredients
- 2 lbs golden potatoes , peeled and quartered
- water (enough to cover potatoes by ~1 inch)
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 5 cloves garlic , minced
- 4 tbsp butter or dairy-free butter
- 2-3 tbsp plain unsweetened dairy-free milk (we prefer almond milk)
- ½ tsp fresh ground black pepper , to taste
- pinch dried parsley for presentation
Instructions
- In a large pot add potatoes and water. The water should cover about an inch over the potatoes.
- Set temperature to high heat.
- When the water starts to boil add salt and reduce heat to medium high.
- Check potatoes after 20-25 minutes with a sharp knife.
- If it is easy to slide the knife in, then the potatoes are done. Give them 5 more minutes if it is difficult to pierce the potato with the knife.
- Once tender, turn off heat and remove from heat.
- Strain potatoes.
- Return to the cooking pot.
- Use a potato masher (or a fork) to mash the potatoes.
- Add garlic, butter and milk and black pepper.
- Mash until you smooth.
- Taste for more salt or black pepper.
- Serve hot, garnish with parsley (optional) and enjoy.
Notes
- For a fluffier consistency add milk and butter. Be sure not to add too much or they will become runny.
