EASY IRISH COLCANNON



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.

Time 30m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs potatoes, mashed. (I like to use 2 bags of Ore-Ida easy mash in Garlic)
1 lb cubed cooked ham
1/2 of a head of cabbage
1 medium onion
2 leeks (white part only)
1 cup half-and-half
1/2 cup butter
1 cup fresh parsley
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare and mash potatoes with half and half and some butter. In a large sautee pan, add 2 tbs. butter and a little oil. Add Ham first, browning slightly, then add leeks and onions and sweat them until they are translucent. Cut cabbage into large bite size pieces (I like approximately 1"x2" strips) and add to sautee pan along with a couple of tablespoons of water. Cover and cook until cabbage is tender, stirring occasionally. Fold contents of sautee pan into mashed potatoes and stir to incorporate. I like to take this in a crock pot on warm setting. Before transporting, add a few tablespoons half and half and butter to surface of Colcannon, to be stirred in just before served. This helps combat 'crock pot dry out'. Colcannon is traditionally served in bowls, topped with fresh parsley and a tablespoon of butter sunken into the center.

1 lb potato, sliced
2 medium parsnips, peeled and sliced
2 medium leeks
1 cup milk
1 lb kale or 1 lb cabbage
1/2 teaspoon mace
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons butter
1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Cook the potatoes and parsnips in water until tender.
  • While these are cooking, chop leeks (greens as well as whites) and simmer in the milk until soft.
  • Next, cook the kale or cabbage and have warm and well chopped.
  • Drain the potatoes, season with mace, garlic, salt and pepper, and beat well.
  • Add the cooked leeks and milk (be careful not to break down the leeks too much).
  • Finally, blend in the kale or cabbage and butter.
  • The texture should be that of a smooth-buttery potato with well distributed pieces of leek and kale.
  • Garnish with parsley.
  • Colcannon is also made by cooking layered vegetables, starting with potatoes, in a slow-cooker during the day.
  • Drain vegetables, blend with milk and margarine as above and garnish with parsley.
