first nom - colcannon with sauteed mushrooms and garden peas

Colcannon is a Scottish recipe that uses kale and potatoes in a very simple but delicious recipe.

Scrub clean and cut 6 medium potatoes into large chunks. Bung everything into a steamer and steam for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the stalk out of the kale leaves (essentially cutting them in half) and toss those in the steamer for the last 5 minutes.

Mash the mix, add as much butter, salt and pepper as you want.

Serve with steamed peas picked and shucked that day, and sauteed mushrooms.
