Mustard Champ

A traditional Irish mashed potato dish with mustard and scallions — tender, buttery, and fragrant. The perfect accompaniment to ham or fish pie.

Ingredients

• 1 kg Potatoes
• 200 ml Milk
• 50 g Butter
• 2 tbsp Wholegrain mustard
• 1 bunch Scallions

Instructions

1. Cut the potatoes and boil them in salted water for 15–18 minutes until tender. Drain and mash the potatoes until smooth.
2. Warm the milk with butter at the edge of the pot. Add the mustard and whisk this mixture into the mashed potatoes until smooth.
3. Lightly sauté the sliced scallions in the remaining butter for 1–2 minutes, keeping them bright green and crisp. Gently fold into the mash and serve.
