1smallOnion or 6 scallions; finely chopped
¼cupMilk

Directions



In very little water, cook the cabbage or kale until tender. Drain and squeeze out as much water as possible.

Mash or rice the potatoes until very smooth. Mix in the cooked cabbage, onions, milk salt & pepper.

Heat half the butter in a frying pan or skillet and add the potato mixture.

Flatten slightly so it looks like a large pancake. Fry until the edges are crisp-looking. Dot the top with the remaining butter and place under the broiler for a few seconds until slightly browned. Sprinkle with parsley.

Serves 4

Serving suggestion: Colcannon goes well with grilled or poached sausages.
