Fasting, vegan and vegetarian fluffy mashed potatoes in just 20 minutes.
With almond milk and nutmeg aroma.
Mashed potatoes (purée) is a simple food that is usually served as a side dish. Such as for Greek lentil soutzoukakia, no-meatballs in tomato sauce, vegan loaf, patties or no-meatballs.
Since potatoes are the basis of our recipe, we want as tasty potatoes as possible. Ideally, we use organic ones. Another rule of thumb is the potatoes to be as yellow potatoes as possible on the inside.
Our recipe is super simple and only takes 20 minutes. And from utensils only a pot and a fork.
To make it fluffy we use almond milk and for the aroma, we add some ground nutmeg. Even better if it's freshly ground! If you want, instead of almond milk, you can use soy milk. It will come out a little fluffier, but also a little sweeter.
Accompany it with your favorite foods or try it plain with a little sauce. No matter how you serve it will be enjoyable!
Bon appétit!

Notes

- Check how light you want your vegan purée to be, by adding a little almond milk, stirring and tasting.
- If you want to give a more beautiful yellow color, add ¼ tsp turmeric in the pot you boil the potatoes.
- If you want to make variations of your purée, you can add boiled and mashed carrots or sweet potatoes. You can also add sautéed onions or leeks.
- The whole nutmeg, when you grate it before adding it to your food, has a more intense aroma than the one already grated. Its aroma is much fresher and a little more intense.
