Vegan Leek and Garlic Mashed Potatoes image

Creamy, decadent mashed potatoes. I use vegan butter for a plant-based side dish, but you can certainly use regularly butter as well.

Time 40m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound potatoes, peeled and sliced
3 tablespoons vegan butter (such as Earth Balance ®), or more to taste
2 ½ cups finely chopped leek, white and pale green part only
6 large cloves garlic, peeled and halved

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.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would add some more salt and pepper next time.

I'm not a huge fan of leeks, but I really enjoyed these mashed potatoes. The garlic and herbs helped to balance out the flavor of the leeks.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too runny for my taste. I think I would add less milk next time.
