Vegan Deviled Potatoes (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 7 yellow baby potatoes
02 - ¼ cup + 1 tablespoon vegan mayonnaise
03 - 1 teaspoon Dijon or yellow mustard
04 - 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
05 - ½ teaspoon kala namak (black salt)
06 - Black pepper to taste
07 - ¼ teaspoon turmeric (optional, for color)

→ Garnish

08 - Paprika for sprinkling
09 - Fresh chives, parsley, or dill (optional)

# Instructions:

01 - Add potatoes to a medium pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-20 minutes until soft but not mushy. You need them firm enough to handle without crumbling.
02 - Drain the potatoes in a colander and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process and cool them enough to handle.
03 - Slice 6 potatoes in half lengthwise. Using a melon baller or small spoon, scoop out about 1 teaspoon from the center of each half to create a small pocket. Place the scooped potato in a medium bowl and arrange the hollowed halves on a serving plate.
04 - Peel the remaining potato and add it to the bowl with the scooped-out potato pieces. Add vegan mayo, mustard, apple cider vinegar, kala namak, black pepper, and turmeric. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
05 - Spoon or pipe the filling into each potato cup. Sprinkle with paprika and garnish with fresh herbs if desired. Serve at room temperature or chilled.

# Notes:

01 - These vegan deviled potatoes are a clever egg-free twist on classic deviled eggs - perfect for potlucks, parties, or holiday gatherings!
02 - The kala namak (black salt) gives these potatoes an authentic 'eggy' flavor thanks to its natural sulfur content.
03 - Choose egg-sized potatoes of similar size for even cooking and the best presentation.
