Yes, mashed potatoes with oil can be made without butter. Oil adds richness while keeping the flavor lighter; add it gradually to hot, freshly mashed potatoes so you can stop when the texture is smooth and moist.
You can make mashed potatoes with oil creamy without milk by mashing them while hot and adding warm cooking water a little at a time. A potato ricer or masher helps keep the texture smooth; avoid blending, which can make potatoes gluey.
Floury, high-starch potatoes are usually best for mashed potatoes with oil because they break down easily and make a light mash. Waxy potatoes tend to hold their shape and can produce a denser, less fluffy result.
Mashed potatoes with oil turn gluey when they are overworked, especially in a food processor or blender. Excessive mixing releases more potato starch; use a hand masher or ricer and stir in the oil gently.
Yes, you can peel potatoes ahead for mashed potatoes with oil. Keep the peeled potatoes fully covered with cold water in the refrigerator, then drain and cook them before mashing; leaving them exposed can cause discoloration.
Yes, mashed potatoes with oil can be frozen, though they may be less smooth after thawing. Freeze them in an airtight container, thaw in the refrigerator, and reheat gently while stirring; add a little warm liquid if the texture seems dry.
Mashed potatoes with oil generally keep for three to four days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate leftovers promptly rather than leaving them at room temperature, and reheat only the portion you plan to eat.
A mild olive oil or neutral vegetable oil works well in mashed potatoes with oil. Extra-virgin olive oil gives the mash a more noticeable, fruity flavor, while a neutral oil lets the taste of the potatoes come through.
Reheat mashed potatoes with oil gently in a saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally. If they have thickened in the fridge, mix in a small splash of warm water or milk; avoid high heat, which can make them stick.
Mashed potatoes with oil pair well with roasted vegetables, grilled chicken, meat dishes, and mushroom gravy. Their mild flavor also works alongside beans or lentils, making them an easy side for both meat-based and vegetarian meals.

Mashed potatoes with oil are made by boiling potatoes, mashing them and mixing in vegetable oil. The dish became a familiar side in European home cooking as potatoes spread across the continent, and it is now served in many cuisines around the world.
The oil gives the mash a smooth, soft texture and a gently rich taste. It commonly accompanies meat, vegetables or gravy, and works just as well as a simple side for a home-cooked meal. At 110 calories per 100 g, it is mainly a carbohydrate source, with relatively little protein. For a lighter mash, use a measured amount of oil and loosen the texture with some of the potato cooking water.
