This simple, hearty recipe is a perfect side for pork. The Irish call it calcannon, but you don’t have to.
Use two large starchy potatoes to a packed cup of raw, chopped kale. Cut potatoes into chunks, boil vigorously until soft through, and whip with milk and butter., salt and white pepper. These don’t have to be perfectly smooth; in fact, they’re better a little lumpy, if you ask me (and I know you didn’t).
Stew greens, drain, and toss with a melted butter. Mix potatoes and kale, adjust salt and pepper. Some people cook onions with the kale, but they’re better as a garnish.
