Irish Colcannon
Ingredients
- 4 cups halved new potatoes or any small potatoes cut into roughly 1-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons salt plus more to taste
- 4 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 scallion white and green parts, chopped
- 3 cups shredded kale
- ½ cup butter plus more for serving
- ½ cup kefir or buttermilk or milk
- Black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large pot, add the halved potatoes and the salt and garlic, and cover with cool water by at least 1 inch. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer, and cook for 12-15 minutes, until fork-tender.
- Drain the potatoes, and add back to the pot. Add the scallion, kale, butter, and kefir and mash together until the butter melts and you have a smooth mixture. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- To serve, transfer the mix to a serving bowl, make a well in the center, and melt a bit more butter in the well. Enjoy!
