COLCANNON POTATOES
Every Irish family has its own colcannon recipe, since it's a classic dish. My recipe comes from my father's family in Ireland. It's part of my St. Pat's menu, along with lamb chops, carrots and soda bread. -Marilou Robinson, Portland, Oregon

Steps:
- Prepare and mash potatoes with half and half and some butter. In a large sautee pan, add 2 tbs. butter and a little oil. Add Ham first, browning slightly, then add leeks and onions and sweat them until they are translucent. Cut cabbage into large bite size pieces (I like approximately 1"x2" strips) and add to sautee pan along with a couple of tablespoons of water. Cover and cook until cabbage is tender, stirring occasionally. Fold contents of sautee pan into mashed potatoes and stir to incorporate. I like to take this in a crock pot on warm setting. Before transporting, add a few tablespoons half and half and butter to surface of Colcannon, to be stirred in just before served. This helps combat 'crock pot dry out'. Colcannon is traditionally served in bowls, topped with fresh parsley and a tablespoon of butter sunken into the center.

Steps:
- Cook the potatoes and parsnips in water until tender.
- While these are cooking, chop leeks (greens as well as whites) and simmer in the milk until soft.
- Next, cook the kale or cabbage and have warm and well chopped.
- Drain the potatoes, season with mace, garlic, salt and pepper, and beat well.
- Add the cooked leeks and milk (be careful not to break down the leeks too much).
- Finally, blend in the kale or cabbage and butter.
- The texture should be that of a smooth-buttery potato with well distributed pieces of leek and kale.
- Garnish with parsley.
- Colcannon is also made by cooking layered vegetables, starting with potatoes, in a slow-cooker during the day.
- Drain vegetables, blend with milk and margarine as above and garnish with parsley.
