Method
0 of 4 done- Peel and cut the potatoes into large chunks. Chop the kale. Mince the spring onions.
- Place the potatoes in a medium pot and cover with cold water by at least 2.5cm. Season the water with salt and bring to the boil. Boil until the potatoes are fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes, then drain in a colander.
- Return the pot to the hob over medium-high heat. Melt the butter in the pot, then add the greens once hot. Cook for 3-4 minutes until wilted and some water has released. Add the spring onions and cook for 1 minute more.
- Pour in the milk and mix well. Add the potatoes, reduce the heat to medium, and mash with a fork or potato masher, combining with the greens. Season with salt to taste and serve hot with a knob of butter in the centre.
