Colcannon is a delicious side dish that\u2019s steeped in the Emerald Isle\u2019s history. Our colcannon potatoes recipe stays true to the traditional recipe. It&#8217;s made with floury potatoes, shredded cabbage, pungent green onions and a generous helping of butter and milk. We do take the more modernized route by sprinkling crumbled bacon on top, but feel free to leave it out. (Here at <em>Taste Recipes<\/em>, we can never say no to bacon!)<\/p>\n<p>Colcannon is typically served on Halloween as a fortune-telling food, but you can\u2019t go wrong serving this hearty Irish side dish on St. Patrick\u2019s Day. <em>Sl\u00e1inte!<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>What is colcannon?<\/h2>\n<p>Colcannon is an Irish dish that\u2019s made of mashed potatoes, shredded cabbage or kale, green onions and tons of butter and whole milk. Sometimes crumbled bacon is added for an extra-succulent, salty flavor.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s up for debate how potatoes arrived in Ireland, but by the 1700s, the spud was an integral part of Irish cuisine.

It's nice to see a recipe that actually has bacon in it. If you ever do a search, most don't. Not to criticize, and I realize that a lot of comments are quite old but my Irish blood just boils when I see anyone type St Patty's day.... it's PaDDY... the D's make it masculine, short for Patrick... or more correctly Padraig. Patty is a derivation of the feminine Patricia. Sorry for the rant but they'd never forgive me in County Clare if I didn't say something.
