Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 portion recipe.
Boil a kettle
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ 425°F/ Gas 7
Cut the potatoes (skin on) into large bite-size pieces
Slice the spring onion[s] finely, discarding the root ends
Add the potatoes to a pot of salted boiling water over a high heat and cook for 15-20 min or until fork tender
Add the sausages to a baking tray (use tin foil to avoid mess!) and place in the oven for 20 min or until cooked through and nicely browned
Meanwhile, separate the spring greens leaves, discarding any tough stalks
Layer the leaves over each other then roll them up and slice them into thin strips
Heat a large wide-based pan (preferably non-stick with a matching lid) with 1 tbsp [2 tbsp] vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add the spring greens, spring onion and a generous pinch of salt and pepper
Cook for 4-5 min, then add a splash of water, cover and cook for a further 2 min
Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pan
Add the spring greens (reserve the pan for the next step), a large knob of butter, a splash of milk and a pinch of salt and pepper
Mash thoroughly until smooth - this is your colcannon
Meanwhile, finely dice (or grate) the apples (skin on), discarding the cores
Chop the chives finely
Return the reserved pan to a low heat with a small knob of butter and add the apples and chives
Cover and cook for 4-5 min or until the apples are soft
Once softened, add a pinch of sugar and a very small splash of water to the apples
Taste for seasoning, adding salt and pepper if needed - this is your apple compote
Serve the cooked sausages over the colcannon and top with the apple compote
Enjoy!
