Colcannon:

Preparation:

Combine pork belly, potatoes, garlic and cabbage in a medium sized pot and cover with enough cold water to cover. Season with salt, cover, and bring to a simmer and gently cook for about 45 minutes, until the potatoes are cooked through and the cabbage is thoroughly braised. Strain and reserve the water.

Heat 1 tsp of butter over medium high heat in a large saute pan and saute the apples for about 1 minute, the add the cabbage/porkbelly/apple mixture and mash together with a fork, increasing the heat to get a little color on the potatoes. If it's too dry, add a little of the cooking liquid. Cook together for about 5 minutes or until the mixture all comes together. Add in the remaining butter and olive oil and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
