Recipe Information
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
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes. Rinse under cold water and set aside.
In a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the potato cubes to the pot and stir to coat with the garlic-infused oil. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
In a small bowl, whisk together the almond milk, nutritional yeast, and cornstarch until well blended.
Pour the almond milk mixture over the potatoes in the pot. Stir well to combine.
Add the fresh thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir to incorporate the herbs evenly.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the potatoes simmer for 30-35 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Check the potatoes for doneness by piercing with a fork; they should be tender but not mushy.
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.
Remove from heat, sprinkle with chopped chives, and give a final stir before serving. Enjoy your creamy and herbaceous dairy-free potatoes!
