Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 cups cabbage, chopped
  • 1 cup leeks, sliced (or green onions)
  • 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or milk for a lighter option)
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Creating colcannon soup can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Start by peeling and dicing the potatoes, and chop the cabbage and leeks.
  2. Melt the Butter: In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
  3. Sauté the Vegetables: Add the leeks and cabbage to the pot, sautéing until soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Cook the Potatoes: Add the diced potatoes and cook for another 5 minutes, allowing them to absorb some flavor.
  5. Add the Broth: Pour in the broth, ensuring the vegetables are fully covered. Bring to a boil.
  6. Simmer: Once boiling, reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  7. Blend the Soup: Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until it reaches your desired consistency. For a chunkier texture, blend just half.
  8. Add Cream: Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat through for another 5 minutes.
  9. Serve: Remove from heat and ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
