VEGAN MASHED POTATOES
If you think cream and butter are required to make amazing mashed potatoes, then this recipe might surprise you. It calls for Yukon Gold potatoes, which are naturally creamier than russets and need only to be mashed with a little of their cooking water to become rich and fluffy. Sizzling shallots in a generous amount of olive oil infuses the oil with flavor before it's swirled into the potatoes. The finished mash is topped with the crispy shallots for a delightful, savory crunch. You could also fry a rosemary sprig in the same oil, or skip it and just add several pats of vegan butter. Whatever you do, remember to season the mashed potatoes generously. Mashed potatoes need lots of salt, especially those without dairy.

Steps:
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-inch pieces. Put them in a large saucepan, add 2 tablespoons salt, and cover potatoes with water by 1 inch.
- Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to medium and let cook until piercing with a fork yields no resistance, about 15 minutes.
- While the potatoes cook, put the olive oil and shallots in a large skillet, and set up a paper towel-lined plate next to the stove. Heat the shallots over medium-high. When they start to bubble, reduce the heat to medium and cook until golden brown, 5 to 9 minutes. (Lower the heat if they are cooking too quickly). Use a slotted spoon to transfer to the paper towels, and season with salt. Reserve the oil.
- Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water, then drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes over low heat using a potato masher or wooden spoon until completely mashed. Add the reserved potato water 1 tablespoon at a time, vigorously stirring until the potatoes are smooth and come together. (You will use about 1/2 cup.) Taste, season with salt, then stir in 1/4 cup of the reserved oil. Serve topped with crispy shallots, black pepper and more of the oil, if desired.

CREAMY VEGAN MASHED POTATOES
Extremely low in fat and healthy. These creamy potatoes are my husband's creation. We were attending a vegan potluck and he was determined to find a way to make the mashed potatoes taste just as good as his unhealthy unvegan version. He succeeded and these creamy vegan mashed potatoes were a hit! Here is the recipe he scratched down for everyone.

- Place the chopped potatoes in a large pan and cover with an inch of cold water. Add a good pinch of salt, then cover with a lid and bring to a boil. (This method is best for even cooking but can take around 10 minutes longer, so just use boiled water from a kettle if you're in a hurry).
- Once boiling, remove the lid and reduce the heat. Simmer for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are soft enough to pierce with a sharp knife.
- Once soft, drain the potatoes in a colander over the sink. Return to the pan and leave to steam-dry for a couple of minutes.
- After a couple of minutes, add the plant-based butter, plant-based milk, mustard, nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper. Mash well with a potato masher (if using a potato ricer, process the potatoes first before adding the other ingredients). Adjust the seasoning to your taste – more mustard for zing, more nutritional yeast for cheesiness etc. Also, add a little more milk if the mash seems too thick.
