COLCANNON

An old Irish recipe served with bacon,
but it is equally delicious when served wit fish or chicken.

250 gr shredded green cabbage
100 ml skim milk
250 g potatoes, diced
1 large leek cleaned and chopped. Include 7 cm of the green part
1 tablespoon butter, melted
pinch of grated nutmeg
salt and pepper

Cook cabbage in a saucepan of boiling, salted water for 10 minutes. Drain well and set aside.

In a separate saucepan , bring milk to boil add leek and potatoes. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes or until they are cooked through. Remove saucepan from cooking plate stir in nutmeg and mash leeks and potatoes together. Add drained cabbage, and mix well.

Spoon potato and cabbage mixture into a serving dish, make a hollow in the center with the back of a spoon and pour melted butter into it. Serve the dish immediately
