Colcannon Potatoes (cabbage and potatoes) are an Irish mashed potato recipe and usually served with lots of butter and cream. Here is a healthier alternative to this yummy St. Patrick's Day favorite that I love to make from MonkeyandMeAdventures.com
Ingredients
- 1 large yellow onion, fine diced (or green onions like the traditional recipe)
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 4 cups roughly chopped green cabbage (I like savoy)
- 1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon pure maple syrup
Spices
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 3-5 lbs Russet or Yukon potatoes (depending on how much you want to make)
Instructions:
Prepare mashed potatoes: peel, cut in cubes and cook potatoes; mash using 1/2-1 cup unsweetened plant milk, salt, black pepper, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder.
Mix together the spices & herbs into a small bowl.
In a large, hot skillet, add the diced onions, sauté over medium heat until they begin to soften, stir to prevent sticking (you can add a bit of broth if they stick)
Add the minced garlic and continue to sauté for another minute, then add the cabbage and remaining ingredients, including the spice mix. Simmer for 15 minutes until the cabbage is tender.
Remove from stove. The cabbage should soak up the liquid. Fold the cabbage into the mashed potatoes.
Enjoy!
