Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup Nutritional yeast
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel the potatoes and slice them thinly, about 1/8-inch thick, using a sharp knife or mandoline.
In a medium saucepan, combine almond milk, nutritional yeast, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Heat over medium heat, whisking continuously, for about 5 minutes until the mixture slightly thickens.
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil. Arrange half of the sliced potatoes in the bottom of the dish, overlapping slightly.
Pour half of the sauce over the layered potatoes, spreading it evenly.
Layer the remaining potatoes on top and pour the rest of the sauce over them, ensuring all the potatoes are well-covered.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the dish cool for a few minutes before sprinkling fresh parsley over the top.
Serve warm and enjoy your comforting Vegan Kartoffelgratin!
