Rumbledethumps
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rumbledethumps is a traditional dish from the Scottish Borders. The main ingredients are Potato, Cabbage and Onion.
Similar to Irish Colcannon, and English Bubble and Squeak, it is either served as an accompaniment to meat or as a main dish itself.
Cooked leftovers from a Roast meal can be used. However, to make from fresh one needs to lightly sauté the shredded onion and cabbage in butter until the onion is transparent and the cabbage wilted, then add some potatoes mashed with butter, salt and pepper; after thoroughly mixing the ingredients, they are placed into an oven proof dish, and cheddar (or similar) cheese placed on top, if desired. This is then baked until golden brown on top.
An alternative from Aberdeenshire is called Kailkenny which replaces the butter in the potatoes with cream.
