COLCANNON

Colcannon is a traditional Irish version of bubble and squeak ... Before we start you can use 2 cups of cooked cabbage / kale or my favourite spinach leaves ...it is up to you . Cook 4 medium old potatoes ( in the new age they are called all rounder potato ) , until tender . Drain and return them to a low heat and shake them until they dry and floury . Mash them and season well with cracked pepper ( you could add a little dried chilli ..optional ). Place 1 finely chopped onion into a small saucepan with 3/4 cup of milk and bring to a slow boil until the onions are tender . Now beat in the onions with the potatoes and 2 cups of the chopped spinach . Stir through 60 gm of butter / marg. Because I'm serving this Colcannon as a main meal Im adding 250 gm of pulled pork , again it is your choice of protein . Stir through to mix well . Transfer to a serving dish ( I used an ice cream scoop to plate up )

and sprinkle with parsley .
