If you make the recipe using CABBAGE and spuds, then it’s called CHAMP in Ireland. (And as an aside: when making Champ, you can use either cabbage or spring onion with spuds.)
If you make the recipe using KALE and spuds, only then is it called COLCANNON in Ireland.

In reply to Rebecca. I'd try chia or flax "egg." If you try it, let me know how they turn out!

I am vegan so I can’t use egg. Any suggestions for a binder.

This was sick delish! I made it twice to use up cabbage left from another recipe. Once I didn’t have green onions so I subbed two teaspoons of onion powder. Both times, I used sharp cheddar made from cow’s milk as well as lowfat cow’s milk instead of the types in the recipe. It takes a bit of prep time because of factoring in the chilling time, and I chilled mine overnight. These cakes were good at every meal and were quite addictive. I ate about three each time while cooking them up. A definite keeper!

Looks so delicious! My mouth is watering a little bit. I will certainly need to make a version of these for myself (gluten-free & real cheese).

I’ve never had colcannon but really…the combination sells itself. These will be happening this week for sure!
