Colcannon Fritters image

With St. Patty's Day right around the corner I couldn't resist making up my own batch of Colcannon Fritters. If you love potatoes, cabbage, bacon and onion you won't want to miss this one. They are light & fluffy. I made sure to keep with the integrity of Irish Colcannon itself & slighty enhance it with addt'l spice. They are...

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 medium red potatoes, skins on, cooked
1 1/2 c cabbage, par- boil cooked, shredded
8 - 10 slice bacon, cooked crisp
2 Tbsp butter
2 - 3 Tbsp sour cream
3 medium green onions, diced
1 1/2 tsp chef han's louisiana blackened fish seasoning
salt & pepper, lightly
BATTER FOR DIPPING
1 1/2 c bisquick mix, approx.
1/4 c buttermilk, approx.
1 large egg, whisk
salt and pepper
oil for frying fritters in
BBQ HORSERADISH SAUCE
1/2 c sour cream
1/3 c bbq horseradish sauce, approx
1/4 c horseradish sauce, approx

Steps:

  • 1. Mash your 3 potatoes, add the butter and sour cream. Next add your crumbled up bacon, diced green onions and shredded cabbage. Mix well. You will want the consistency thick so you can form your fritters. If you want, you can make ahead and refrigerate till time to fry them up.
  • 2. I would make up the sauce ahead of time too. If you don't have the bbq horseradish sauce, just use some of your favorite bbq sauce and maybe start with a little less than a 1/4 cup. Taste and add more to your liking.
  • 3. Prepare your dipping batter. Add your bisquick, buttermilk (I used lowfat), and add your whisked egg. Whisk together. You will want it to be a pancake batter type of consistency....a little thinner but still thick; adjust accordingly with more bisquick or buttermilk. Set aside when done.
  • 4. Heat your oil in a pan till hot....test it make sure it is right temp. by dropping a little bit of batter into oil. If it starts to sizzle you are ready to fry your fritters. Next, dip your fritter into the batter; cover both sides and place down in the hot oil then repeat till pan is full. Leave space in between each one so they do not stick together. Flip in about a minute or two...you want them a golden brown. The other side will cook about the same time or a little less. Place on a paper towel lined plate and salt your fritters lightly and continue till finished. You can garnish with parsley and a dollup of sour cream or make some BBQ Horseradish sauce to dip them in. Either way, they are delicious.
  • 5. If you have leftover BBQ Horseradish Sauce you can make up some deviled eggs the next day with it. They taste delicious made with this sauce.

These fritters are delicious! I made them for my family and they loved them. They're a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes.

I've tried a lot of colcannon fritter recipes, and this one is by far the best. The fritters are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the flavors are perfectly balanced.

I'm allergic to dairy and I was able to make these fritters dairy-free by using almond milk instead of regular milk. They were just as good as the regular version.

I served these fritters with a side of sour cream and they were perfect. The sour cream added a nice tang that complemented the flavors of the fritters.

I added some chopped bacon to my fritters and they were amazing! The bacon added a smoky flavor that really took the dish to the next level.

These colcannon fritters were a hit at my last party! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the flavors of the cabbage, potato, and onion were perfectly balanced. I'll definitely be making these again.
