Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

10 medium cloves garlic (separated from the bulb and peeled)
3 pounds red potatoes (scrubbed and cut into 2-inch pieces*)
2 tablespoons olive oil + more for serving if desired
1/2 teaspoon salt + additional salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/3 cup vegetable broth
1/3 - 3/4 cup Silk Unsweetened Original Almondmilk
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives + more for topping
Vegan buttery spread for topping (optional)
3- quart or larger slow cooker

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.

SLOW COOKER MASHED POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVES

Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes With Sour Cream and Chives image

When stovetop and oven space is at a premium, the slow cooker can be a good friend. This hands-off, one-pot recipe makes creamy, slightly tangy mashed potatoes, and, unlike most mashed potato recipes, this one doesn't call for milk. The potatoes give off enough moisture as they braise, so just some extra butter and sour cream is enough to make them smooth. After mashing, the potatoes hold very well on warm for up to 3 hours: Just add the chives and give the potatoes a quick stir before serving.

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

5 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into roughly 1-inch chunks
8 tablespoons/1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted, plus 3 tablespoons, cut into chunks
1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup sour cream
1 bunch chives, minced (about ⅓ cup)

Steps:

Toss together the potatoes, melted butter, salt and a generous amount of black pepper in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Cook on high until the potatoes are very tender, stirring once or twice if possible to encourage even cooking, about 4 hours.
Add the sour cream and remaining 3 tablespoons butter and mash the potatoes with a masher until they are smooth and creamy. Just before serving, fold in the chives and season again with black pepper. Taste and add more salt only if necessary.

Tips:

For the best results, use starchy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes.
Make sure to peel and cube the potatoes evenly so they cook evenly.
Don't overcrowd the slow cooker. If you have too many potatoes, they won't cook evenly.
Add the garlic and chives towards the end of the cooking time so they don't lose their flavor.
If you want a smoother texture, use an immersion blender to blend the potatoes until smooth.

Conclusion:

This vegan slow cooker mashed potatoes recipe is an easy and delicious way to enjoy a classic comfort food. The potatoes are cooked until tender and fluffy, and the garlic and chives add a delicious savory flavor. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
