This is the way I make it, it's the way my mum and Granny made it too

We are from County Armagh Northern Ireland

Generally we would have this just by itself, smaller portion with good beef sausages in an onion gravy or as a side dish to a main meal


3kg or half a stone of potatoes (spuds)

A bunch of spring onions (scallions)

Quarter pint of milk

Butter

Half a tablespoon of cornflour

Salt and pepper


I boil my spuds, while they are boiling I chop the scallions into the milk and let it sit and flavour the milk

Just before the spuds are boiled and smoothly mashed I add the half tbsp of cornflour to the milk and scallions heat and make a slightly thick white sauce

(Honestly no idea why we make it this way) all my family on both sides made it the same

Butter your spuds and add the white scallion sauce a bit at a time to make a nice smooth potato dish


Plate it up and poke a well in the middle and put a good big lump of butter in middle

I eat it with a spoon, going round the outside and dipping into the butter

It's my favourite 😋😋😋😋
