LYRICS
“Did you ever eat Colcannon, made from lovely pickled cream?
With the greens and scallions mingled like a picture in a dream.
Did you ever make a hole on top to hold the melting flake
Of the creamy, flavored butter that your mother used to make?”
The chorus:
“Yes you did, so you did, so did he and so did I. And the more I think about it sure the nearer I’m to cry.
Oh, wasn’t it the happy days when troubles we had not,
And our mothers made Colcannon in the little skillet pot.”
What can I serve with colcannon Potatoes
I'd also suggest steak bites or meat loaf.
What are Colcannon Potatoes?
Colcannon is a traditional Irish mashed potato dish, and is a hearty and comfort food classic in Ireland.
This dish is a year-round staple, although it also makes special appearances at holidays, including St. Patrick’s Day, and most especially at Halloween where sneaky chefs conceal lucky charms or coins within the Colcannon potatoes. Watch out for those thimbles!!
