Ham hock colcannon
This ham hock colcannon is a hearty take on the classic Irish dish, combining creamy mashed potatoes with tender, wilted cabbage and spring onions. The ham hock adds a smoky, salty counterpoint to the rich potato base. It's all finished with a fried egg, its runny yolk a natural sauce for the colcannon. This comforting meal comes together in about forty minutes.

Boil the Potatoes
First, peel the potatoes and cut them into even, medium-sized chunks. Place them in a large pan, cover with cold salted water, bring to a boil, and cook for 10-15 minutes until a knife slides into the potatoes easily without resistance.
