🗒️ Ingredients and Substitutes
Potatoes: I love to use Russet potatoes in this recipe as the starch content in white potatoes break down into a creamier consistency more so than waxier potato varieties. Having said that, any kind of potato will do in a pinch. We also love this recipe with Yukon Gold potatoes!
Water: You will need just enough water to cover the potatoes.
Salt: An essential ingredient. I find one teaspoon to be the perfect saltiness level for this recipe but if you know you tend to favor more or less salt in recipes, adjust as you need.
Butter: I use unsalted butter in this recipe. If you only have salted butter, use less salt or save the salting for after the dish has cooked. If you are vegan or dairy-free, use a vegan butter or plant-based spread instead.
Garlic powder: A small amount of garlic powder is used in this recipe and it doesn’t create a super garlicky dish, just enough to enhance flavors just a touch. If you are not a garlic fan, feel free to omit.
Black pepper: A touch black peppers helps season these potatoes, but if you are not a fan, you can leave it out.
