    Ingredients

    • 1 whole head garlic
    • 6 large russet potatoes peeled and diced
    • 2 tbsp vegan buttery spread such as Earth Balance, or extra-virgin olive oil
    • ¼ –½ cup unsweetened rice milk or other nondairy milk
    • salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
    • scallion thinly sliced or chives, minced, for garnish
    US Customary - Metric

    Instructions

    • Remove some of the papery outer layers from the garlic but keep the cloves intact. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a 350°F oven or 375°F toaster oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the cloves are soft.
    • When cool enough to handle, gently separate the cloves from the head of garlic and squeeze the soft pulp out of each clove into a small bowl and discard the outer skin.
    • In the meantime, cover the diced potatoes with plenty of water in a large saucepan and bring to a simmer. Simmer steadily but gently, covered, until the potato dice are very tender, about 20 to 25 minutes, then drain.
    • In a large, shallow bowl, combine the cooked potato dice with the Earth Balance or olive oil and stir until melted. Add ¼ cup of rice milk and the reserved garlic pulp and mash the potatoes until smooth and fluffy. If needed, add up to an additional ¼ cup of rice milk to loosen the consistency.
    • Season with salt and pepper, then transfer to a serving container. Sprinkle some scallion or chives over the top and serve at once, or keep warm until needed.
