Prep: 20 mins | Cook: 80 mins | Total: 100 mins | Quantity: 4 - 6 portions
Ingredients
1 + 1/2 cups (375ml) vegan cream (single or double)
4-5 large cloves garlic – peeled and crushed
1 heaped tsp wholegrain mustard
1 tsp dried rosemary
3 tblsp nutritional yeast
good pinch each of salt and pepper
3-4 large potatoes
1 medium leek
Baking dish 10 x 7 inches (26 x 18 cm)
Instructions
Put the cream and crushed garlic in a saucepan, gently bring to the boil then turn off the heat
Whisk in the mustard, rosemary, nutritional yeast, salt and pepper and set aside
Preheat your oven to 180 Fan / 200 C / 400 F / Gas 6
Slice the leek and wash to remove any bits of dirt in the layers. Drain thoroughly
Peel the potatoes and slice into fairly thin, but even, slices
Place a layer of potatoes into the baking dish to thickly cover the bottom
Cover with some of the leeks then repeat the layers until you've used up all the veggies, ending in a layer of potatoes
Give the cream a quick whisk then pour over the potatoes, scraping out any bits of garlic left in the pan
Lightly oil one side of a piece of foil then lay the oiled side down to cover the potatoes. Crimp the foil round the edges so it forms a lid over the potatoes
Bake for 1 hour then carefully remove the foil and return to the oven for another 15-20 minutes until the dauphinoise is crispy, golden and bubbling
Notes
Chill any leftovers and reheat thoroughly
Single vegan cream works great in this recipe, vegan double cream will give a slightly richer, creamier finished dish
