Ingredients
- 1 large russet potato, peeled
- 1 teaspoon plant-based butter (such as Country Crock®)
- 2 tablespoons diced onions
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup plant-based butter (such as Country Crock®)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened, plain almond milk
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 6 corn tortillas
- avocado oil cooking spray
Instructions
1
Collect all the necessary components and prepare them for use.
2
Boil a saucepan filled with potato and salted water until it reaches a rolling boil. Then, decrease the heat to a lower setting and let it simmer for 20 minutes or until tender.
3
In the meantime, melt 1 teaspoon of plant-based butter in a pan over medium heat. Add an onion and cook until it becomes soft and translucent, taking about 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and continue cooking until it emits a fragrant aroma, approximately 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and set it aside.
4
Once the potato has finished boiling, drain it and transfer it to a bowl. Add 1/4 cup of plant-based butter and almond milk, season with salt and pepper to taste, and mash the ingredients together. Mix in the cooked onion and garlic until they are well combined.
5
Warm tortillas by placing them in a skillet or directly on the grates of a gas stove until they become soft and pliable. Place 3 tablespoons of the potato mixture in the center of each tortilla, fold over, and roll up into a taquito shape.
6
Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place the taquitos in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not touch one another. Mist them with avocado oil.
7
Cook the taquitos in batches if necessary, until they are golden brown and crispy, taking about 6 to 9 minutes. Flip the taquitos over, mist them with avocado oil, and continue cooking for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.
