Reviews

  1. really delicious! the glaze really makes the pork outstanding.
     
  2. Grew up eating this, as we're from Northern Ireland. Kind of a go-to...comfort food meal. My husband and son love it as well!! Can't go wrong! We did not put cottage roll in the oven though... I boil ours it in the net it comes in with the actual cabbage in a huge stock pot. Then carve it down.
     
  3. Not being from Ireland, I have no idea what is a cottage roll. Can you enlighten me?
     
  4. I grow up eating this. We did not put it in the oven but we added the cabbage and the potatoes directly to the pot 1/2 hr before end of cooking time. Cook until the potatoes are done. This may take longer than 1/2, depending on how large your chunks of potato are. This gives the potatoes a yummy, salty ham flavor. No need for butter but always a welcome addition on the plate. Serve with brown mustard on the side. Now we are talking 5 stars!
     
  5. Just made it .will let you know

Tweaks

  1. We love this recipe. I've been making it since 2004 and it tastes just as good every time. I have tweaked it a bit towards family preference. I add turnip and parsnip pieces and add apple juice or apple cider with the water when covering the cottage roll. Thanks again for sharing this wonderful recipe. Which we are currently getting ready to enjoy.
