Categories     Easter     spring     St. Patrick's Day     パン     dinner     side dish

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 medium russet potatoes (about 2 lb.) scrubbed clean
2 tbsp. plus 1 tsp. salt, plus additional to taste
6 tbsp. butter, plus additional for serving
4 c. chopped green cabbage, kale, or a mixture of both
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
1 bunch green onions, chopped and divided
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 c. half-and-half

Steps:

  • Peel the potatoes and cut them into 2-inch pieces. Add them to a Dutch oven and cover with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of salt. Boil, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are very tender, about 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes in a colander and set aside.
  • In the same Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the cabbage or mixture of greens, the remaining 1 teaspoon of salt, and the pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the cabbage mixture ;is softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup of the green onions for garnish and add the remaining green onion and garlic into the cabbage mixture. Cook, stirring often, until the garlic is lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the half-and-half and cook 2 to 3 minutes until warm. Add the potatoes, then mash and stir until the mixture is well combined. Season with additional salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Transfer the colcannon to a serving dish and top with more butter, if preferred. Sprinkle with the reserved 1/4 cup green onions.

Easy Irish Colcannon image

Traditional Irish potato dish, very easy to make. Bear in mind that the UK and Ireland weren't exactly known for their cuisine, but for authenticity, this is what you want. For unauthentic but enhanced flavor, you can add bacon bits, or Cheddar cheese, or both.
