Steps:
- Tip the potatoes into a large saucepan of water. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 15-20 mins, or until the flesh is tender when pierced.
- Meanwhile, heat quarter of the butter in a saucepan, then fry the bacon and half the cabbage for 5 mins (see Kevin's tip, below, for how to use remaining cabbage). Turn off the heat and set aside. Drain potatoes in a colander and peel while still hot.
- Mash potato until smooth. Heat cream with remaining butter and, when almost boiling, beat into the potato. Add bacon and cabbage to potato and mix. Season if you want.

DIANE'S COLCANNON
While colcannon seems to be associated with St. Patrick's Day, I love the combination of potatoes, cabbage, onion, and bacon all through the cooler months of fall and winter! I attend an annual St. Paddy's Day party and this is the dish I'm always asked to bring...and I'm happy to say that the bowl comes home empty every time!

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.

COLCANNON
Look for floury potatoes - otherwise known as baking potatoes - as they have a lower moisture content and are perfect for the mash in this classic colcannon dish.

Steps:
- Sieve or mash the potatoes and mix with the cabbage and cream. Season well with salt and pepper.
- Fry the onion in the fat over a moderate heat until it is soft and beginning to brown.
- Using a spatula, press half the potato and cabbage mixture in an even layer on to the onion and fry for 4-5 minutes until it is well browned and crispy underneath.
- Cut the mixture into 4 quarters with the spatula or palette knife and turn them over carefully so that the crispy bit is uppermost. Press the remaining potato and cabbage mixture on to the first layer and after a few more minutes, cut and turn again.
- When the bottom is again browned, you will have a crispy top too, a crispy bottom, and a crispy layer in the middle.

Steps:
- Steam the potatoes in their skins for 30 minutes. Peel them using a knife and fork. Chop with a knife before mashing. Mash thoroughly to remove all the lumps. Add 1 stick of butter in pieces. Gradually add hot milk, stirring all the time. Season with a few grinds of black pepper.
- Boil the cabbage in unsalted water until it turns a darker color. Add 2 tablespoons butter to tenderize it. Cover with lid for 2 minutes. Drain thoroughly before returning it to the pan. Chop into small pieces.
- Put the ham in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 45 minutes until tender. Drain. Remove any fat and chop into small pieces.
- Add cabbage, scallions, and ham to mashed potatoes, stirring them in gently.
- Serve in individual soup plates. Make an indentation on the top by swirling a wooden spoon. Put 1 tablespoon of butter into each indentation. Sprinkle with parsley.
CLASSIC COLCANNON
This colcannon recipe came from a Prince Edward Island, Canada, cookbook, if I remember correctly. I do not know the title to it or if it is still in print. There are many different recipes for colcannon, but this one is my favorite, the only one I make now.

COLCANNON
I found this wickedly delicious-sounding recipe for a really creamy colcannon in the March 2005 edition of the BBC Good Food magazine. It is a part of Irish cook Kevin Dundon's suggested St Patrick's Day dinner menu. As he says, 'Side dishes don't come more Irish than creamy colcannon'. I really like the sound of his colcannon, because of its decadent creaminess, because Savoy cabbage is so much tastier than other varieties and because this is certainly my favourite way to cook cabbage: with bacon rather than boiled in water. Sounds like an any-time-of-year dish to me! Well I shan't be waiting until 17 March 2006 before making it anyway!

Steps:
- Tip the potatoes into a large saucepan of water, bring to the boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced.
- Meanwhile, heat quarter of the butter in a pan, then fry the bacon and half the cabbage for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and set aside.
- Drain the potatoes in a colander and peel while still hot.
- Mash the potato until smooth, heat the cream with the remaining butter and, when almost boiling, beat into the potato.
- Add the bacon and cabbage to the potato and mix.
- Season, to taste and serve.
- MY NOTES: If you can't find sliced back bacon, I'd suggest using middle rasher bacon, with the rinds and fat removed. The rest of Kevin Dundon's St Patrick's Day menu includes 'Smoked wild Irish salmon with chive pancake and 'Guiness & honey glazed pork loin'. I'll post the other two recipes soon. Both sound scrumptious, and also far too good to hold off making until March 2006. And I'm confident that local salmon will serve the recipe admirably! When in Rome -- When in Ireland -- When -- wherever -- .

- Peel and boil the potatoes. Remove the core from the cabbage, slice it thinly, and put into a large saucepan. Cover with boiling water from the kettle and keep at a slow rolling boil until the cabbage is just wilted and has turned a darker green. This can take anything from 3-5 minutes depending on the cabbage. Test it and don’t let it overcook if anything it should be slightly undercooked.
- When the cabbage is cooked, drain it well, squeeze to get any excess moisture out, then return to the saucepan. Add one-third of the butter and cover. Leave it covered and in a warm place, but not on a burner, with the butter melting gently into it while you continue.
- When the potatoes are soft, drain and return the saucepan, with the drained potatoes in, to a low burner, leaving the lid off so that any excess moisture can evaporate. When they are perfectly dry, add the milk to the saucepan along with a third of the butter and the chopped scallions if you are using them. Allow the milk to warm but not boil – it is about right when the butter has fully melted into it and it starting to steam.

10 TRADITIONAL IRISH BREAKFAST FOODS - IRELAND TRAVEL GUIDES
From irelandtravelguides.com
- Boxty. Boxty is a traditional Irish potato pancake found mostly in the north midlands, north Connacht, and southern Ulster, particularly in the counties of Leitrim, Mayo, Sligo, Donegal, Fermanagh, Longford, and Cavan.
- Black Pudding. It’s also known as blood pudding or blood sausage in neighboring countries, but the Irish call it black pudding. It’s created from (typically) pig’s blood, which is blended with oatmeal, oat groats, or barley groats before being baked.
- Porridge. Porridge, a traditional Irish morning food, is among the most popular in the country. Slow-cook oats soaked in milk or water until they reach the required consistency on a burner or stovetop.
- White Pudding. White pudding is identical to black pudding except it does not include blood. Suet or lard, oats or barley, breadcrumbs, and, in some cases, pork and pork liver are all included in modern recipes, which are then stuffed into a natural or cellulose sausage casing.
- Colcannon and champ. When potatoes were introduced in the late 16th century, they completely changed Irish cuisine. With this inexpensive and bountiful food source, Ireland’s population surged, only to be decimated when potato harvests were ravaged by blight in the nineteenth century.
- The Breakfast Roll. The morning roll (Irish: rollóg bhricfeasta) is a bread roll stuffed with fried breakfast ingredients. It’s available in a variety of places around Ireland, including convenience stores, newsagents, supermarkets, gas stations, and casual cafes.
- Waterford Blaa. During the Reformation, the French are thought to have brought this fluffy white bread roll to Waterford and the South East. The blaa is a soft, white, floury bread roll that looks like a Bap or a Hamburger Bun.
- Irish Soda Bread and Irish Scones. Soda bread and soda scones are made from a basic quick bread that is leavened with baking soda. They are a popular Irish breakfast food that is also eaten as a snack.
- Dublin Coddle/ Irish Cadal. Coddle is a delicious and hearty breakfast meal that has traditionally been used to use up leftovers. Everything goes into the coddle: sausages, bacon, onions, and the essential ingredient: potato.
- Full Irish Breakfast. The specific elements of a full breakfast vary by geography, personal preference, and cultural affinity in Ireland. Bacon rashers, pork sausages, fried eggs (or scrambled), white pudding, black pudding, bread, and fried tomato have traditionally been the most common items in Irish breakfasts.
