Video Tutorial: Potatoes with Mushrooms
Main Ingredients
- Potatoes. I like using Russet potatoes and Red Bliss potatoes because they hold their shape well.
- Mushrooms. Although I used Baby Bella mushrooms in this recipe, feel free to use regular white button mushrooms. I also want to try these potatoes with Portobello mushrooms. Maybe one of you will try it first? If you do, please, let me know how you liked it!
- Onion.
- Coconut Milk. Use your favorite brand. I used coconut milk by Native Forest.
- White Wine. Use Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, or Chardonnay.
- Oil. Use any oil you prefer. I like grapeseed and olive oil best.
How to Make Potatoes with Mushrooms
1. In a large, non-stick griddle, sauté the onions in olive oil over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes and then add the mushrooms and garlic. Keep cooking for about 10 minutes.
2. Pour in the wine and cook just until it evaporates.
3. Add the potatoes, salt, and pepper to the mushrooms and keep frying, stirring occasionally for 10 minutes.
4. Add coconut milk and reduce the heat to low. Cover with a tight lid and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through.
5. Let it rest for 5 more minutes, garnish with parsley, and serve.
Helpful Tips & Tricks
Slice the potatoes into uniform pieces. This will ensure that the potatoes will cook evenly, and you won't have too much mushy or undercooked pieces.
Use a non-stick skillet. I’ve tried using other skillets and only non-stick cookware performs well for this recipe.
Use full-fat coconut milk. Make sure you are using full-fat canned coconut milk, and not the packaged one, sold next to dairy-free milk in the refrigerated section of the store.
Don’t stir too much. Once you add the coconut milk and cover the potatoes with a lid, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes without peeking. Then open the lid, stir, and cook for another 5-7 minutes or until the potatoes are fully cooked through.
How to Store and Reheat the Potatoes
Store these Potatoes with Mushrooms in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stovetop, adding a bit of coconut milk, if necessary.

Love these potatoes!!! I had to cook a bit longer and I left the skins on since I used baby potatoes.

Yay! Thanks for the rating, Leslie!

Thanks appreciated. Only thing is I did not have coconut milk and only had coconut oil. Well milk is an oil in water suspension at about 25% fat. The oil is 99% fat. So to make a suspension is a physics operation. The oil I had is more solid than oil due to the temperature. So I heated 50ml (about 1/5 of a cup) in an a cup to liquefy it. Then to make the milk ones puts water 150ml (about 3/5 of a cup) alone in a mixer/blender and starts to mix/spin the water and then slowly pour in the oil at the rate the mix can accommodate the oil going into suspension. Well, I blended a few seconds too long and got cream, but that's OK. It worked out anyway. Note: Don't put in the oil first and then add the water else you will get a water in oil suspension which is the physics of suspensions.

Are you peeling the potatoes or leaving the skins on?
Tania Sheff says
HI Gary! You can peel them or keep the skins on. Both ways work. Happy cooking!
