Note
- Potato Size: Try to cut the potatoes into evenly sized pieces to ensure they cook at the same rate.
- Vegan Butter: Feel free to use your favorite brand of vegan butter. For a richer flavor, consider using a "European-style" vegan butter, which often has a higher fat content.
- Flavor Boosters: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat, or a squeeze of lemon juice for brightness.
- Herbs: Fresh herbs like dill, thyme, or rosemary also complement the flavors of this dish.
7. Variations:
- Roasted Garlic Potatoes: Roast a head of garlic in the oven until soft, then mash the roasted garlic cloves and stir them into the melted vegan butter sauce after the potatoes are cooked.
- Cheesy Potatoes: Sprinkle shredded vegan cheese over the potatoes after cooking and let it melt from the residual heat.
