Ingredients

For the Sauce

2 tbsp olive oil
½ medium onion, peeled and diced
3 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
3 tbsp. all-purpose flour
½ tsp. turmeric powder optional
1 tbsp. mustard any kind
1 tbsp. vegetable broth paste, or salt (see notes)
2 cups extra creamy oat milk or other unsweetened plant or nut milk

For the Potatoes

2 lbs. Yukon Gold potatoes
½ salt or to taste
½ tsp. red pepper flakes or to taste (optional)

Instructions

In a small sauce pan, saute the onions in olive oil over medium heat, for about 5 minutes.
Add the garlic and flour, and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
Now, add the turmeric, mustard, and veggie broth paste (or salt). Stir everything together nicely.
At this point, start adding the oat milk gradually, stirring the entire time. Bring it to a gentle simmer and then turn off the heat.
Using an immersion blender (or regular blender), process the sauce until smooth.
Peel the potatoes and cut them into ¼-inch thick rounds. Arrange them in a baking dish.
Sprinkle the potato slices with salt, and pour the sauce over the potatoes evenly. If desired, sprinkle some red pepper flakes on top.
Bake at 375°F for about 1 hour, until the top looks nicely browned and the potatoes are cooked through. Serve.

Notes

Veggie Broth Paste. Or your favorite seasoning. I usually use no chicken or vegetable broth paste by Better Than Bouillon. You can skip this ingredient and use some salt instead.

Add ins and Substitutes

Substitute sweet potatoes. If you like, you can substitute sweet potatoes for half or all of the Yukon gold potato slices. The added sweetness is delicious.
Add some greens. You can add vegetables like spinach or kale to the sauce or just layered in with the potatoes. You can also use fresh herbs or even a pesto sauce.
Add a nutty flavor. You can also grind up nuts like raw cashews or place chopped nuts in this dish for more flavor.
Add nutmeg. Freshly grated nutmeg adds a lot of aroma and flavor.
