COLCANNON RECIPE

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes with the garlic for 15 - 20 minutes until cooked through.
• While the potatoes are cooking, melt 100g of the butter in a small frying pan and saute the cabbage and spring onions for 3 - 4 minutes until softened.
• Drain the potatoes and mash (leave the garlic in).
• Add the cabbage and spring onions (including the butter they were cooked in) to the potatoes.
• Meanwhile warm the remaining butter and cream until the butter is melted (I do this in the pan I fried the cabbage in). Add to the potato and cabbage mixture.
• Add the chives and plenty of salt and pepper and stir until throughly combined. Serve immediately with extra butter and chives to garnish.

DIANE'S COLCANNON

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender.
• Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, reserving drippings, crumble and set aside. In the reserved drippings, saute the cabbage and onion until soft and translucent. Putting a lid on the pan helps the vegetables cook faster.
• Drain the cooked potatoes, mash with milk and season with salt and pepper. Fold in the bacon, cabbage, and onions, then transfer the mixture to a large serving bowl. Make a well in the center, and pour in the melted butter. Serve immediately.
