Directions
Tos the potatoes, water, broth, and garlic into a pot. Bring everything to a boil, then lower the heat to medium-low and let it simmer until the potatoes are nice and tender—this usually takes about 15 minutes. Once they're soft, drain the potatoes, but don’t toss out the cooking liquid just yet; set it aside for later. Put the potatoes back into the pot and warm them over medium heat for about a minute to let any extra moisture evaporate. Take the pot off the heat, then slowly add some of the reserved cooking water and rice milk, switching between the two as you stir quickly. Keep going until the potatoes are creamy but not too watery—stop before it starts to puddle in the pot.
Serving Ideas

How To Store This Recipe
