Colcannon
What You Need:
  • 1¼ pounds kale, tough stems removed, washed (or use green cabbage)
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1¼ pounds potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 1 cup cleaned and chopped leeks (white part only)
  • 1 cup milk
  • Pinch of ground mace
  • Salt and freshly ground back pepper to taste
  • ½ cup melted butter

    GARNISH (OPTIONAL)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley

  • How To Cook:
    1. In a large pot, simmer the kale, covered, in 2 cups of water and the oil for 10 minutes. Drain and chop fine; set aside and keep warm.

    2. In a small pot, bring the potatoes and water to cover to a boil and simmer until tender. In another small pot, simmer the leeks, covered, in the milk for 10 minutes, and keep warm.

    3. Drain the potatoes and puree them, using a potato ricer or masher, into the large pot. Add the leeks with their milk, and the cooked kale. Beat with a wooden spoon until fluffy.

    4. Season with mace, salt, and pepper. Mound on a plate and top with melted butter. Garnish with parsley if you are using cabbage.
