Deviled Potatoes Vegan Style (Print Version)

Mini potatoes filled with a creamy vegan mayo-mustard mash and topped with chives and paprika.

# Ingredients:

→ Main Components

01 - 15 small potatoes

→ Filling

02 - 6 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
03 - 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
04 - 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
05 - Salt, to taste
06 - Black pepper, to taste
07 - Pinch black salt (kala namak, optional)

→ Garnish

08 - Paprika
09 - Chives, chopped

# Steps:

01 - Place whole potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with cold salted water, and bring to a boil. Simmer for 12 to 18 minutes until easily pierced with a fork.
02 - Drain potatoes, rinse under cold water, and transfer to an ice bath to cool. Once cool enough to handle, peel the potatoes.
03 - Cut each potato lengthwise in half. Carefully scoop out a small hemisphere from each half, collecting the removed potato flesh in a bowl.
04 - Mash the reserved potato flesh with vegan mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, and black salt if using, until smooth and creamy.
05 - Pipe or spoon the whipped filling into the hollowed centers of each potato half.
06 - Sprinkle filled potatoes with paprika and chopped chives for garnish. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to four days.

# Notes:

01 - For authentic egg-like flavor, a pinch of black salt (kala namak) adds sulfurous depth to the filling.
