Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium, chopped Yellow onion
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 2 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 cup, full-fat Coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
Instructions
Wash and peel the russet potatoes and cut them into 1/4-inch thick slices.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
Pour the vegetable broth and coconut milk into the skillet and stir to combine.
Add the sliced potatoes to the skillet, making sure they are evenly coated with the liquid. Bring to a simmer.
Mix in the nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the potatoes cook over low-medium heat for 25-30 minutes until they are tender, stirring occasionally.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Add this to the skillet and gently stir to thicken the sauce.
Continue to cook for another 5 minutes, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve hot as a main dish or side. Enjoy your Vegan Smothered Potatoes!
