Scale
Vegan Mashed Potatoes
- 2 lb potatoes
- 3/4 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1/2 tsp salt
- nutmeg and black pepper to taste
Simple Vegan Gravy
- 1/4 cup chickpea flour* (25 g)
- 2 heaping tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp granulated onion
- 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried sage
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 cups water
Instructions
For the mashed potatoes
- Peel the potatoes, cut them into chunks and put them in a large pot with cold water.
- Bring the water to boil and cook the potatoes for about 20 min.
- Drain the potatoes. Then add the coconut milk and mash until you achieve the desired consistency. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
For the Gravy
- While the potatoes are cooking you can prepare the gravy.
- Put the chickpea flour and the nutritional yeast into a small pot. On medium heat, toast the two ingredients for a 1-2 minutes until fragrant (make sure not to burn them).
- Add the spices and sage plus the water. Stir until no clumps are left. Bring to a boil and whisk until it has thickened. Take off the heat.
Notes
* Instead of chickpea flour you can also use wheat or spelt flour. I haven't tried using other types of gluten-free flour.
