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.

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.

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.

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.
