1 hour/15 min prep This recipe came from a Prince Edward Island, Canada cookbook, if I remember correctly, I do not know the title to it or if it is still in print. There are many different recipes for colcannon, this one is myfavorite, the only one I make now. by Jan H.

3-4 med potatoes, peeled and cut in squares 2 tbs milk or light cream 1/4 tsp salt 1/8 tsp pepper 2 c chopped cabbage 2 tbs butter or margarine 1/4 c chopped onion 2 tbs butter (for frying)

1. Cook potatoes in boiling water till tender; drain, reserving water. 2. Place in a large bowl. 3. Mash with hand masher till well-mashed. 4. (I find the electric mixer makes it too gooey.) 5. Add milk, salt and pepper and beat till fluffy. 6. In the same saucepan as potatoes were cooked in, cook cabbage in reserved potato water for 6 to 8 minutes, until tender. 7. Drain. 8. Meanwhile, melt 2 tbs butter in frying pan and saute onion until tender. 9. Add mashed potato and cooked cabbage to the onion. 10. Heat thoroughly, stirring constantly. 11. Place in a heated serving dish. 12. Serve hot, topped with butter.
