Number Of Ingredients 6

4 russet potatoes (2 to 2 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into large chunks
Salt

3 lightly packed cups of chopped kale, cabbage, chard, or other leafy green
3 green onions (including the green onion greens), minced (about 1/2 cup)

  • Cook the greens and the green onions with butter: Return the pot to the stove and set over medium-high heat. Melt the butter in the pot and once it's hot, add the greens. Cook the greens for 3-4 minutes, or until they are wilted and have given off some of their water. Add the green onions and cook 1 minute more.

ST. PATRICK'S COLCANNON

This is an 'Irish' way to deal with the leftover corned beef after the American corned beef and cabbage feast. My husband considers this a wonderful part of the corned beef cycle. I use red potatoes with skins on, substitute ham for the corned beef, and leeks for the green onions, depends on what's in the fridge.

COLCANNON (ST PATRICKS DAY)



Colcannon (St Patricks Day) image

I stumbled across this recipe last year in Culinary, when we had to research another countries staple dishes. Looking at it, It's not the most appealing thing in the world. But Sure is Tasty! Traditionally Made with Cabbage or Kale. I prefer to use Kale because I'm not a huge fan of Cabbage...But all the less. It's festive and Tasty. Perfect for St. Patricks Day!!! (I Have also had this with Parsley and a little fresh Basil, and that is also delicious!)
