½ cup honey

¼ cup Dijon mustard

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon oregano

1 teaspoon curry powder

any chopped fresh herb for garnish – optional

                                                            Garlic Mashed Potatoes 

4 – 6 Servings

Ingredients

2 pounds organic red skin potatoes

Water to cover

1 bay leaf

3 large garlic cloves

¼ teaspoon mustard powder

½ teaspoon sea salt

½ cup vegan mayonnaise

¼ cup of the liquid potatoes were cooked in


Method

Wash/scrub potatoes and cut them into equal size.

Cover with cold water then add bay leaf and garlic cloves, bring to a boil.

Cook for 15 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender.

Drain potatoes and reserve 1 cup of the cooking liquid.

Remove and discard the bay leaf.

Place the potatoes, mustard powder, sea salt, vegan mayonnaise in a mixing bowl with a paddle.

Mix just long enough for potatoes to reach a creamy consistency. Add cooking liquid ¼ cup at a time if needed.  

If you process too long potatoes will become sticky and gooey rather than light and fluffy.

You can also use a potato masher to cream the potatoes.  Just be careful not to over mix the potatoes, you want them to be light and fluffy.
