Hi there! I wish I could get savoy cabbage here, but I have never seen it. I suppose I could use a regular cabbage. I love potatoes any way they can be cooked!
Looks delicious. I have made colcannon only once but I loved it. I will try your traditional recipe. I sort of forgot about this dish. I am from the United States so this is not a common dish. I am new to your channel. Love your recipes!
Thanks for sharing this recipe.Looks so good. Making this for Saint Patrick's Day dinner. My granny on my father's side came right from Ireland unfortunately I never got to meet her she's passed away before I was born. My dad is now 90 and doesn't remember all the recipes that my grandma used to make. So thank you for sharing this one . Thank you again, Maureen
Lovely to hear from you Maureen, hope you enjoy the colcannon. I have lots of Irish recipes on my channel maybe have a look and there maybe something else there you would like. Happy St Patrick's Day to you and your dad. What part of the world do you live in x
I made it for Saint Patrick's Day dinner,It was so good. I live in Pennsylvania in United States. I hope you had a happy Saint Patrick's Day ☘️☘️🍀. Thanks again, Maureen PS My granny came from Northern.
Thank you for showing this. My nana, from Wexford, made this every Friday. She used to indeed add parsnip. We always had this with a fried egg. Another of my favourites that she would make on a Friday was dripping stew.
I must try it with parsnips Bridget to see what it's like. I have heard of colcannon being served with soft fried eggs. The dripping stew sounds fab the old recipes really are the best. thank you for your lovely comment. x
Was wondering if you had a recipe for buns with a pastry base and jam on the inside. Used to get them when I was a kid. Would be grateful if you had. Thanks 🙏 for all the nice recipes. Ronnie.
Ronnie are they like the little jam tarts, I think they did a pack of 6 from memory Apricot or lemon, strawberry and blackcurrant.I loved them too. I will pop it on a list for a recipe I think lots would love them :)
@@ScrummyTV The ones I got were homemade. Just like a normal bun but with a pastry base and jam inside. Think I saw a packet once like the ones you described. Thanks 🙏 for answering
It was a Halloween tradition to put a coin a thimble and a button into the Colcannon a coin for prosperity a thimble meant a woman remains a spinster and a button meant a man remained a bachelor
I've noticed other videos (especially american) they just boil everything separately and then mix it after. Instead of cooking it slowly in one pan layered with the leaves on top like a lid. I think your way looks the most proper and wondered how you think the other ways would taste different? Plus you don't fry the onions so they will taste different to. Im sure your way is the best
Hi! This looks like the way I am making potato-mash... I can not eat any kind of cale/cabbage, yep, to much pain... So I had problems getting my kids to eat any greens, so I put it into the potato-mash.... peas, spinach, broccoli... any vegetable... because it changed colours, I had to rename my mash... to something disgusting, like 'rotten monkey-brain' or something like that, and that it was food for adults, no kids allowed to eat it... Yep, they 'sneaked' into the kitchen, and had a taste.... so I 'punished' them to eat it besides the fish or meat-dish... This was in the early 90's, so now I hope they passed it forward with my grandkids...😂
This practice was part of a broader set of fortune-telling traditions associated with Halloween, a time when the veil between the living and the dead was believed to be at its thinnest. By incorporating various objects into the colcannon, such as a coin, a ring, or a thimble, it was thought that these items could predict the future of the person who found them in their serving. Finding the coin in colcannon was particularly associated with wealth or good fortune coming to the person in the upcoming year.
I like to use _Colcannon_ as the topping for my _Shepard's Pie._
That's a fab idea, I love shepards pie and would never have thought to do that.
The name is interesting , the story special
thank you x
Regards, thank you for your work. God bless
you're welcome x
Hi there! I wish I could get savoy cabbage here, but I have never seen it. I suppose I could use a regular cabbage. I love potatoes any way they can be cooked!
Regular cabbage will be fine Laura. If it's greener than savoy cabbage you will get a lovely colour through the potatoes. x
😋😋
Thank you this is a beautiful dish even on it's own x
Looks delicious. I have made colcannon only once but I loved it. I will try your traditional recipe. I sort of forgot about this dish. I am from the United States so this is not a common dish. I am new to your channel. Love your recipes!

Sweet idea to put a coin in the food and the melting butter on top is the very best. thank you.

For picking up onions, try a bench scraper from ikea. No joke it has changed my life. There was always one bit of onion I couldn’t pick up!
Will take a look and get one thanks for that tip x
Or one from $Tree...and I keep a couple extra to assemble and slide jigsaw pieces into place.

Yes there are lots of ways to make it but this is how it use to be made. We all loved it this way & its really quick x
@@ScrummyTV thank you ill try it

It's a great way to get the veg into the kids. One of my kids is terrible for eating her vegetables so I try and incorporate it into food secretlyx
Why the coin??? Luck?
