Mashed Potato
Ingredients
  • 2 pound yukon gold potatoes, cut into ½ inch dice
  • 5 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 medium onions, diced
  • 1 teaspoon plus ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup vegetable broth

Directions
  1. In a large pot, cover potatoes with water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 18 minutes, until tender when pierced with a fork. Drain well and return to the pot.

  3. Add the onions to the drained potatoes and mash with a potato masher until broken down. Stir in the vegetable broth, garlic powder, remaining olive oil, and remaining salt. Serve immediately.
