Mash

Side Serves 4 30 min

Lighter than the traditional mash, this greens-loaded dish is creamy, warming and comforting. It's good with chicken or sausages. Stir in a teaspoonful or more or mustard for a bit more of a kick.

  • ½ green or white cabbage, shredded
  • 200g broccoli, cut into florets
