Ingredients

  • red potatoes (about 1 pound)

    3 1/2 cups

  • margarine

    1 tablespoon · or butter

  • onion, chopped

    1/2 cup

  • green cabbage, thinly sliced

    6 cups · about 1/2 head

  • 1% milk

  • black pepper

    1/4 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash hands with soap and water.

  2. 2

    Scrub potatoes, but do not peel. Cut into quarters. Cook in boiling water or steam until tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.

  3. 3

    While potatoes cook, heat butter or margarine in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add onion and cook until it becomes clear, about 3 to 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage begins to brown, about 4 to 6 minutes.

  5. 5

    Reduce heat to low. Add milk, salt, and pepper. Cover and cook until cabbage is tender, about 6 to 8 minutes.

  6. 6

    Drain potatoes. Add cabbage mixture to potatoes. Mash with a potato masher or large fork to reach desired texture. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Use any all-purpose potatoes such as yellow or white. Russet potatoes are also good but you may want to peel through the rough skin after scrubbing them.
  • Try adding cilantro on top for more flavor.
