Ingredients
Creamy Potatoes
- 5 large Russet potatoes peeled and diced
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Cabbage Mixture
- 1/4 cup butter
- 4 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 small white onion diced small
- 2 green onions chopped
- 1/2 cup crumbled cooked bacon
- salt and pepper to taste
- chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Place the potatoes into a medium pot of lightly salted water. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are fork tender, but not falling apart. Drain and place into a large bowl along with the cream and butter. Keep warm.
- While the potatoes are boiling, place the butter and onions into a medium sized frying pan. Fry until the onions are soft. Add in the cabbage and fry until softened to your liking. (some people prefer a toothsome cabbage; some prefer it quite soft.)
- At this point, the potatoes should still be hot as you have been cooking the cabbage while the potatoes boiled. Mash the potatoes/butter/cream until smooth.
- Stir in the hot cabbage, green onions, half of the bacon and salt and pepper to taste.
- Place in a bowl and garnish with the remaining bacon and the fresh parsley.
Notes
- Feel free to adjust the ratios, you can use more cabbage and less potatoes, more bacon ,etc.
