Wherever you're celebrating Halloween this year don't miss out on eating a traditional Irish dish called "COLCONNON." This traditional Irish dish is a real treat during the HALLOWEEN season.
C O L C A N N O N
4 pounds of good quality potatoes
1 fresh green cabbage
1 cup of milk or cream
1 stick of Irish butter
4-5 scallions, chopped
handful of fresh chives
Peel and cook the 4 pounds of potatoes in a pot. In a separate bowl boil some water and add the leaves of the whole green cabbage. Allow the cabbage to slightly undercook than drain the cabbage completely and add a quarter stick of butter to the drained cabbage. Allow the butter to melt into the cabbage but not on burner for five minutes.
Add 1/2 stick of butter into the cooked and drained potatoes and mix with the chopped scallions. Mash the potatoes with a cup of the milk or cream and than add the cabbage into the potato mixture.
Once everything is mixed together add the remaining butter into the mixture and place a handful of chives on top.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN (IRISH STYLE)
