Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Boil the potatoes for 15-18 minutes or until tender. Drain the potatoes.
- While the potatoes are cooking, place the bacon in a pan over medium heat. Cook for 6-8 minutes or until bacon is crispy.
- Remove the bacon from the pan.
- Add the cabbage and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until cabbage is wilted. Stir in the green onions and garlic, and cook for 30 seconds.
- Place the potatoes back in the pot. Add the heavy cream, butter and salt and pepper to taste. Mash until smooth.
- Pour the cabbage mixture and bacon into the mashed potatoes. Stir to combine.
- Serve immediately, topped with butter, bacon and herbs if desired.
Notes
- You can use a potato masher, a hand mixer, or potato ricer to mash your potatoes. Do not use a food processor, as it will make the colcannon gummy.
- This recipe can be made up to 3 days in advance.
- You can freeze this dish for up to 2 months in an airtight container.
