Colcannon image

Colcannon is a traditional Irish dish for St. Patrick's Day. It's everything you love about creamy mashed potatoes with the hearty twist of cabbage or kale.

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.

CLASSIC COLCANNON



Classic Colcannon image

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.

Provided by Jan H.

Categories     Potato

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 -4 medium potatoes, peeled and cut in quarters
2 tablespoons milk or 2 tablespoons light cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cups chopped cabbage
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter (for frying)

Steps:

  • Cook potatoes in boiling water till tender; drain, reserving water.
  • Place in a large bowl.
  • Mash with hand masher till well-mashed.
  • (I find the electric mixer makes it too gooey).
  • Add milk, salt and pepper and beat till fluffy.
  • In the same saucepan as potatoes were cooked in, cook cabbage in reserved potato water for 6 to 8 minutes, until tender.
  • Drain.
  • Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in frying pan and saute onion until tender.
  • Add mashed potato and cooked cabbage to the onion.

Categories     side dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

3/4 pound green cabbage
1 pound Yukon gold potatoes, peeled
Coarse sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
1 small onion, chopped
3 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Trim the cabbage, discarding tough outer leaves and the hard core. Cut it into quarters and steam the quarters until barely tender. Chop them fine and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, steam or boil the potatoes until they are tender. Mash them and season them with salt and pepper to taste. Mix in the cabbage.
  • In a large nonstick skillet, soften the onion in two tablespoons of the butter. Mix it with the cabbage and potatoes. Return the mixture to the pan and fry until it is browned on the bottom. Put a plate over the pan and invert to turn the mixture onto it like a pancake. Heat the remaining tablespoon of butter in the pan. Brown the potatoes and cover the cabbage mixture on the other side.
