VEGAN MASHED POTATOES
If you think cream and butter are required to make amazing mashed potatoes, then this recipe might surprise you. It calls for Yukon Gold potatoes, which are naturally creamier than russets and need only to be mashed with a little of their cooking water to become rich and fluffy. Sizzling shallots in a generous amount of olive oil infuses the oil with flavor before it's swirled into the potatoes. The finished mash is topped with the crispy shallots for a delightful, savory crunch. You could also fry a rosemary sprig in the same oil, or skip it and just add several pats of vegan butter. Whatever you do, remember to season the mashed potatoes generously. Mashed potatoes need lots of salt, especially those without dairy.

Steps:
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-inch pieces. Put them in a large saucepan, add 2 tablespoons salt, and cover potatoes with water by 1 inch.
- Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to medium and let cook until piercing with a fork yields no resistance, about 15 minutes.
- While the potatoes cook, put the olive oil and shallots in a large skillet, and set up a paper towel-lined plate next to the stove. Heat the shallots over medium-high. When they start to bubble, reduce the heat to medium and cook until golden brown, 5 to 9 minutes. (Lower the heat if they are cooking too quickly). Use a slotted spoon to transfer to the paper towels, and season with salt. Reserve the oil.
- Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water, then drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes over low heat using a potato masher or wooden spoon until completely mashed. Add the reserved potato water 1 tablespoon at a time, vigorously stirring until the potatoes are smooth and come together. (You will use about 1/2 cup.) Taste, season with salt, then stir in 1/4 cup of the reserved oil. Serve topped with crispy shallots, black pepper and more of the oil, if desired.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are best for mashed potatoes because they have a high starch content, which makes them creamy and fluffy.
- Cook the potatoes properly: Boil the potatoes in salted water until they are tender but not mushy. You can also roast the potatoes in the oven for a more caramelized flavor.
- Mash the potatoes thoroughly: Use a potato masher or ricer to mash the potatoes until they are smooth and creamy. Avoid using a blender or food processor, as this will make the potatoes gummy.
- Add flavorings: Add vegan butter, plant-based milk, garlic, herbs, and spices to taste. You can also add roasted vegetables, such as carrots or parsnips, for extra flavor.
- Serve immediately: Mashed potatoes are best served immediately after they are made. If you need to make them ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, or freeze them for up to 2 months.
Conclusion:
Vegan mashed potatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a great side dish for roasted vegetables, grilled meats, or tofu. They can also be used as a filling for sandwiches, wraps, or tacos. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make vegan mashed potatoes that are creamy, flavorful, and satisfying.
