Red Potato Colcannon - 31g Carbs, 5g Fiber

From: Eating Well March/April 2007

There are countless variations on this classic Irish potato-and-cabbage
combination—ours is made with steamed red potatoes, sauteed cabbage and
just a touch of butter.

Servings: 4
Serving Size: about 1 cup each
Active Time: 30 min
Total Time: 30 min

1 lb small red potatoes, scrubbed and cut in half
1 Tbsp butter
1/2 cup onion, thinly sliced
6 cups green cabbage, thinly sliced (about 1/2 head)
1 cup low-fat milk, milk
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp white pepper

1. Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a Dutch oven. Place potatoes
in a steamer basket and steam, covered, until just cooked through,
about 15 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and cover to keep warm.

2. Meanwhile, heat butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium
heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add
cabbage and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the
cabbage begins to brown, about 5 minutes.

3. Reduce heat to low. Stir in milk, salt and white pepper; cover
and cook until the cabbage is tender, about 8 minutes. Add the
cabbage mixture to the potatoes. Mash with a potato masher or a
large fork to desired consistency.
