“Since time immemorial” probably sums up the origin of this traditional English leftover comfort food. The ingredients are typically varied to suit the seasons but mostly what’s leftover from Sunday dinner. This very basic side dish can easily be extended into a stand-alone light meal, even a cooked breakfast . Do feel free to experiment with using other leftover vegetables, such as Brussels sprouts, parsnips, carrots and celeriac, all of which I have incorporated at times #WastenotWantnot

Mash the potatoes, cabbage and butter together until well-mixed. Season.

Bring 1 tbsp of oil to a medium-high heat in a largish frying pan and soften the onion, shallot and garlic.

Cook it for about 7-9 minutes, until a crust starts forming on the bottom. Flip it over and repeat this process. Serve piping hot with the rest of the meal.
