Colcannon


This Sunday breakfast consisted of a simplified version of Colcannon. Served with a side of veggie sausages and topped with green onion. This is a very easy dish to make for breakfast or dinner. Traditionally Colcannon is made with carrots and cabbage or kale and cabbage. I wanted to test this recipe just to see how well it would be received by the hungry masses and then take it from there. I omitted the carrots and cabbage. Essentially to make colcannon you boiled potatoes, carrots and cabbage together in a pot. When they are tender drain and mash together. Add butter and brown sauce to the mash to flavour. Serve immediately. My version of colcannon is to mash all veggies together and turn out the mash into a lightly greased 9x11 pan. Then with a spoon make six indentations. Crack an egg into each. Bake covered in an 375º degree oven for 20 minutes or until each egg is poached to your liking. Serve hot. -jw
