Colcannon otherwise known as potato with savoy cabbage

Serves 4

Jest niewatpliwie problem z pogrzewaniem pod koniec, moze trzeba w microwave? (We had a problem while re-heating (step 10). May have to use the microwave oven for it… I think it may depend on how thick the resulting mash is.. May have to do it in a steam-boiler.

  • 500g medium potatoes
  • 1/2 Savoy cabbage, shredded
  • 100ml milk
  • 60g unsalted butter
  • 2 spring onions, chopped
  • Salt and ground black pepper
  • Coarse sea salt to finish
  1. Put the unpeeled potatoes into a pan of water, bring to the boil and simmer until tender.
  2. Drain and return to the empty pan and cover with a tea towel and leave to dry for five minutes.
  3. Uncover and leave until cool enough to handle.
  4. Blanch the cabbage in boiling water until tender.
  5. Drain, then refresh briefly under cold water.
