Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup Vegetable broth
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks to ensure even cooking.
Add the potatoes to a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Peel the garlic cloves and add them whole to the pot of water with the potatoes.
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the potatoes and garlic until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and garlic in a colander, then return them to the pot.
Warm the vegetable broth and unsweetened almond milk in the microwave or a small saucepan until hot.
Mash the potatoes and garlic with a potato masher, gradually adding the warmed vegetable broth and almond milk until the desired consistency is reached.
Stir in the salt and black pepper, adjusting the seasoning to taste.
Serve immediately, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
