Colcannon - Traditional Irish Dish image

This was a simple traditional Irish dish to prepare. The tender shredded cabbage mixed with the creamy mashed potatoes was perfect. The scallions barely cook and add a lot of flavor to this dish. We really enjoyed this dish and the "knob' of butter on top!

Categories     Potatoes

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 potatoes, large
4 c shredded cabbage
2 oz butter
1/2 c scallions (green onion, chopped)
2/3 c warm milk
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 Tbsp chopped parsley for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Peel and cut potatoes and boil until tender, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, wash and shred the cabbage and cook it in boiling water for about 10 minutes until tender. Drain and mash the potatoes, drain the cabbage.
  • 2. Melt the butter in a large pan. Add the cabbage and stir in chopped green onion. Cook for about 1 minute.
  • 3. Combine the cabbage mixture with the mashed potato. Add enough warm milk to make it creamy. Season with pepper. Serve it garnished with a little chopped parsley. I always add a knob of butter too and let it melt over the top!!!

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my colcannon turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much milk.

I had some trouble finding colcannon in my local grocery store. I ended up using a mix of cabbage and kale, and it turned out pretty well.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it could use more seasoning, or maybe some additional vegetables.

I'm not a huge fan of cabbage, but I really enjoyed this colcannon recipe. The cabbage was cooked perfectly, and the potatoes and bacon were delicious.

This is my favorite way to make colcannon! The cabbage and potatoes are so creamy and delicious, and the bacon adds a nice smoky flavor. I always serve it with a side of Irish soda bread.
