Got side dish! Ingredients:
6 to 8 russet baking potatoes |
1 bunch scallions (the bulbs and green stems) |
1 1/2 cups milk |
8 tablespoons butter |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Clean the potatoes boil them whole in their skins until tender.
2. While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the scallions. In a small saucepan add the chopped scallions and milk, cover and slowly bring to a boil. Simmer for about 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside in the pan.
3. While hot, peel and mash the potatoes. Add the scallion and milk mixture. Beat in about 4 tablespoons of butter. Salt and pepper to taste.
4. Serve in four separate bowls with a tablespoon of butter in the center of each heaping bowl. Or serve in one large bowl dotted with butter on top.
5. In this champ recipe you can substitute leeks, nettles or fresh peas for the scallions. It would still be a traditional Irish recipe.
