Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 kg baby potatoes
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 cup unsweetened plant-based yogurt (such as soy or almond)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 tsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tbsp chives, chopped
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Start by washing the baby potatoes thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt.
Place the cleaned potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add 1 tablespoon of salt to the water.
Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and let the potatoes simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the vegan sour cream. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the unsweetened plant-based yogurt, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, nutritional yeast, and garlic powder. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Taste the sour cream and adjust seasoning if needed by adding more salt or lemon juice to taste.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and let them cool slightly.
Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish. Sprinkle with finely chopped chives and black pepper to taste.
Serve the boiled potatoes warm with a generous dollop of vegan sour cream on the side or drizzled over the top.
Enjoy your vegan boiled potatoes with sour cream as a delightful side dish or a light main meal.
