πŸ₯” Colcannon Soup offers a comforting, creamy texture combining tender potatoes and savory greens for a hearty meal.
🍲 Inspired by Irish flavors, this soup is perfect for warming up on chilly days and provides nourishing vitamins and minerals.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

– ΒΌ cup unsalted butter

– Β½ cup diced onion

– 1 teaspoon minced garlic

– 3 cups chopped cabbage (about half a head)

– 6 cups vegetable broth (more if needed)

– 3 large peeled and chopped russet potatoes (approximately 2 pounds)

– 1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

– ΒΌ teaspoon black pepper

– 1 cup half and half

– 2 cups chopped kale leaves

– sliced green onion for garnish

– chopped cooked bacon for garnish

Instructions

1- Creating Colcannon Soup is a breeze with these easy steps, starting with the basics of cooking the vegetables to build a rich, creamy base. Begin by melting the butter and cooking the diced onion over medium heat until it softens, then add the minced garlic and cook for one more minute to release its aroma. This sets the foundation for the soup’s comforting flavor.

2- Next, stir in the chopped cabbage and cook until it softens and wilts, adding a nice texture to the mix. Add the peeled and chopped russet potatoes, vegetable broth, salt, and black pepper, then let everything simmer for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. At this point, the soup starts to come together with its hearty goodness.

3- To finish, partially blend the soup using an immersion blender or food processor, keeping some potato chunks for a thicker texture that makes it feel homemade. Stir in the half and half and chopped kale leaves, heating gently until the kale wilts slightly, which only takes a minute or two. Serve it up hot, garnished with sliced green onion and chopped cooked bacon for an extra layer of taste. This Colcannon Soup not only warms you up but also fits into your routine with its simple process.
