How to make it

  • Clean the potatoes boil them whole in their skins until tender.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the scallions. In a small saucepan add the chopped scallions and milk, cover and slowly bring to a boil. Simmer for about 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside in the pan.
  • While hot, peel and mash the potatoes. Add the scallion and milk mixture. Beat in about 4 tablespoons of butter. Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve in four separate bowls with a tablespoon of butter in the center of each heaping bowl. Or serve in one large bowl dotted with butter on top.
  • In this champ recipe you can substitute leeks, nettles or fresh peas for the scallions. It would still be a traditional Irish recipe.
