This Potato and Cauliflower Mash is a delightful twist on traditional mashed potatoes. By incorporating cauliflower, this dish reduces the carb content while adding extra nutrients and a subtle, nutty flavor. Seasoned with vegetable seasoning and enriched with vegan sour cream, it's a creamy, satisfying side dish that pairs well with a variety of main courses. Perfect for those looking to add more vegetables to their diet without sacrificing comfort food appeal.
Instructions
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into roughly 2-inch chunks. Cut the cauliflower into florets of a similar size.
- Place the potato chunks and cauliflower florets in a large pot. Add enough cold water to cover the vegetables by about an inch.
- Add the salt to the pot and bring the water to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until both the potatoes and cauliflower are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Drain the vegetables well in a colander, then return them to the pot.
- Add the vegetable seasoning and vegan sour cream to the pot.
- Mash the vegetables using a potato masher or an immersion blender until you reach your desired consistency. If you prefer a smoother mash, you can use a food processor.
- Taste the mash and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You may want to add more salt, vegetable seasoning, or vegan sour cream to suit your taste.
- Serve the mash hot as a side dish. You can add a pat of vegan butter on top for extra richness if desired.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave, adding a splash of plant-based milk if needed to restore creaminess.
