Best 4 Vegan Garlic Mashed Potatoes Recipes

VEGAN ROASTED-GARLIC MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the garlic on a piece of foil, drizzle with 1 teaspoon of the oil, wrap and roast until very tender, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the potatoes in a large saucepan, cover by 1 inch with cold water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are very tender, about 20 minutes. Strain and return the potatoes to the saucepan.
• Add the roasted garlic with any juice that has collected, almond milk, remaining 2 teaspoons of oil and 1 1/4 teaspoons salt to the potatoes. Mash with a potato masher until smooth or to the desired consistency, adding additional almond milk if necessary. Stir in the chives and add salt to taste. Transfer the potatoes to a serving bowl, garnish with additional chives and serve.

VEGAN LEEK AND GARLIC MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Rinse leek well and drain in a colander.
• Melt vegan butter in a pot over medium-high heat and stir in leek. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until leek is soft, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil, add sliced potatoes and garlic, and cook until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain potatoes and garlic and return to the pot with the leeks. Mash until desired consistency is reached.

VEGAN GARLIC MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Thinly slice 2 garlic cloves. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in heavy small skillet over low heat. Add sliced garlic and sauté until tender, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
• Cook potatoes and remaining 8 garlic cloves in large saucepan of boiling salted water until potatoes are tender, about 35 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 1/4 cups cooking liquid. Combine boiled potatoes and garlic, sautéed garlic mixture and remaining 3 tablespoons oil in same saucepan. Mash until smooth, adding enough reserved cooking liquid to form creamy consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer potatoes to bowl. (Can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm potatoes in microwave until heated through.) Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

VEGAN SLOW COOKER MASHED POTATOES WITH GARLIC & CHIVES

Steps:

• Place garlic at the bottom of the slow cooker. Add potatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle on the salt. Pout the vegetable broth over the top.
• Cook on high 3 - 4 hours or low 8 hours, until the potatoes and garlic are tender.
• Mash the potatoes! You can either use a potato masher or a hand mixer. I don't recommend a food processor or stand mixer because they can overmix the potatoes and give them a starchy consistency. Mash the potatoes a bit, then pour in 1/3 cup of the almond milk. Continue mashing/mixing, adding additional almond milk until the potatoes are your desired consistency. Mix in the chives.
• Taste and add additional salt and some pepper, if desired, to taste.
• Scoop into a bowl and top with more fresh snipped chives and a pat of vegan buttery spread, if desired.
