Irish Colcannon
Ingredients
- 6 to 8 potatoes peeled and cubed
- 1 cup chopped green onions
- 4 cups chopped cabbage or kale could use a combination of both
- 1 stick butter or 8 tablespoons or 1/2 cup
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3/4 cup evaporated milk could use regular but the evaporated is richer
Instructions
- Combine cubed potatoes, chopped cabbage and green onions in a large pot on top of the stove. Cover with water, bring to a low boil and cook 15 to 20 minutes until potatoes are done.
- Remove from stove and drain. Add the butter, salt, pepper and milk. Mash until like mashed potatoes. I just use a hand potato masher. Spoon into a casserole dish and serve. Can sprinkle on some green onion tops.
Notes
You could add bacon, chives, a little garlic powder or even nutmeg to this dish. This Irish colcannon can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
