These mashed potatoes are extremely easy to make, and have the added benefit of being vegan. A hefty dose of garlic lends a bite to the creaminess. Make sure to use good olive oil. (For everything you need to know to make perfect potatoes, visit our potato guide.)

These mashed potatoes were the worst I've ever had! They were lumpy, bland, and had a weird aftertaste. I will definitely not be making these again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these mashed potatoes turned out lumpy. I followed the recipe exactly, but they just didn't come out smooth. I will definitely be trying again.

I used russet potatoes for these mashed potatoes and they were a little too starchy. I would recommend using Yukon Gold potatoes instead. I will definitely be making these again.
