Recipe fact:
Colcannon is an Irish specialty made with rich mashed potatoes mixed with finely chopped cooked onion and kale.

Ingredient substitution:
Cubed cooked ham can be substituted for the corned beef.

Kitchen tip:
To invert hot colcannon onto a serving platter, first place a platter upside down on the skillet. Holding both platter and skillet in place with hot pads, quickly flip both so that the skillet is upside down on the platter. Remove the skillet and garnish with extra cheese and chopped fresh parsley.

Serving suggestion:
Enjoy assorted vegetable relishes, pickles and warm rye bread with this hearty dish. Chocolate mint ice cream served with crispy chocolate wafers makes a nice dessert.
