Ready In: 50 mins
Serves: 6
Ingredients
- 8 large potatoes, peeled
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 6 slices bacon, chopped in strips
- 200 g green cabbage, shredded
- 100 ml milk, heated
- butter
- cheddar cheese
Directions
- Fry the garlic, onion and bacon together until the onion is cooked, but not browned. Set to one side.
- Boil the cabbage in boiling salted water until tender. Drain and set to one side.
- Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and mash to remove all lumps. Add butter to taste. Add the hot milk- the milk being hot makes the mash lovely and fluffy.
- Combine the mash, cabbage and onion/bacon mix in a large pot. Check for seasoning- it may not need much salt due to the bacon.
- Place the entire mixture into an oiled oven dish and top with some grated cheese.
- Pop in an oven which has been pre-heated to 180°C.
- Everything is cooked and hot, so just leave in the oven until the cheese is melted to your taste- for me about 10 minutes.
- Serve as a side, or eat the whole thing yourself!
