Ingredients
Scale
- 6 Irish sausages
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 1/2 head of cabbage, shredded
- 4 scallions, chopped
- 1/2 cup milk
- 4 tablespoons butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook the Irish sausages over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 15-20 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Boil the quartered potatoes in a large pot until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Add the shredded cabbage for the last 5 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes and cabbage, return to the pot, and mash with milk, butter, and scallions. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve the hot Irish sausages alongside a generous helping of creamy colcannon mash.
Notes
- Use Yukon Gold potatoes for extra creaminess.
- Don’t overcook the cabbage; it should retain some texture.
- For richer flavor, add a knob of butter on top of the colcannon before serving.
- Experiment with adding other vegetables like leeks or kale.
