Colcannon

[Poor Student]

Now does anyone know about Coddle? :D

Came across that tripe when I was visiting my grandmother in hospital earlier this year. Asked the nurse what it was and she said it was some crap Northsiders ate. It originated out of all the week's left overs being mashed together.

Thats not true at all. No mashing whatsoever. Its like a stew basically.

Bubble n squeak in our house was always mashed potatoes and mushy peas mashed together and fried. Had to have a bit of a crust on it. Used to get it on a sunday evening with the leftovers from the dinner. My father used to always have a fried egg on his colcannon. In fact he used to have a fried egg on his mashed potatoes quite often. Colcannon was always made with kale in our house. Haven't had it in ages.

No, no, no. Tripe is completely different. Tripe and drisheen is a Cork thing.

Jaysus you learn something new every day
I always thought colcannon was the posh name for curly kale
didn't realise that the whole dish was colcannon (ie. spuds-n-onions included)
