Once I learned how to cook this became one of my favorite dishes, it is high in carbs and is good for quick energy, I usually top it in sour cream and bacon bits. Prep Time: 20 Minutes Cook Time: 20 Minutes Yields about 8 servings.
Method
Boil Potatoes in water. While doing this fry the bacon until crispy brown. Drain, reserving the drippings, crumble, and set aside, in the reserved drippings, sauté the cabbage and onion until soft and translucent, putting a lid on the pan helps the vegetables cook faster, for a stronger taste I suggest steaming the vegetables, after sautéing.
Drain the cooked potatoes, mash with milk and season with salt and pepper. Fold in the bacon, cabbage, and onions, and then transfer the mixture to a large serving bowl. Make a well in the center, and pour in the melted butter. Serve as soon as possible if you opt to steam the vegetables to retain freshness.
