Ingredients
- 2 medium gold potatoes (about 0.5 lbs)
- 0.25 cup non-dairy milk plain, unsweetened
- 0.25 teaspoon nutmeg
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Peel the potatoes if desired. Then, cut them into quarters.
- Add potatoes to a large pot. Fill with cold water, about an inch or two above the potatoes. Bring to a
boil and let cook until the potatoes are soft and fork-tender, about 12-16 minutes.
- Carefully drain the potatoes into a colander. Then, put the potatoes back into the warm pot.
- Mash potatoes with a potato masher.
- In a small pot add the non-dairy milk and warm in microwave and add the nutmeg.
- Carefully pour the warm mixture into the pot with the potatoes. Stir well. If you think the potatoes
need more moisture, warm up some more non-dairy milk and add as needed.
