Equipment

  • 1 Pot For boiling potatoes.
  • 1 Baking sheet For baking potatoes.
  • 1 Steamer For steaming potatoes.
  • 1 Knife For cutting potatoes.
  • 1 Cutting board For chopping ingredients.

Ingredients
  

Potatoes

  • 4 medium Fresh potatoes (Yukon Gold, red, or sweet) Choose firm potatoes without blemishes.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil Use sparingly for healthy fats.

Herbs

  • 1 tablespoon Fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, or parsley) Enhances flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic (fresh or powdered) For flavor boost.
  • 1 medium Onion Adds sweetness and depth.

Spices

  • 1 teaspoon Paprika For seasoning.
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper For seasoning.
  • 1 cup Vegetable broth For added flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Non-dairy milk (almond or oat) For creaminess.
  • 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast For a cheesy flavor without the calories.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Select Fresh Potatoes: Start with fresh potatoes, as they are the star ingredient. Choose varieties like Yukon Gold or red potatoes for their creamy texture and flavor.
  • Wash and Peel: Rinse your potatoes under cold water. If you prefer, peel them for a smoother texture, but leaving the skin on adds extra dietary fiber.
  • Cut into Uniform Pieces: Chop the potatoes into even-sized pieces. This ensures they cook evenly, preventing some from being undercooked while others are overdone.

Cooking

  • Choose Your Cooking Method: Decide whether to boil, bake, or steam your potatoes. For boiling, place them in a pot of salted water. For baking, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and place them on a baking sheet. Steaming is another great option, as it helps retain nutrients.
  • Cook Until Tender: Boil or steam the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender. If baking, cook for about 30-40 minutes, turning halfway through for even browning.
  • Season to Taste: Once cooked, season your potatoes with herbs and spices. Garlic powder, onion powder, and fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme work wonderfully. For a creamy texture, add a splash of non-dairy milk or a sprinkle of nutritional yeast.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Finally, serve your low-calorie potato dish warm. Pair it with grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
