Instructions
  1. Wash potatoes and steam until cooked through. I steamed them whole on a rack in my Instant Pot with one cup of water for 20 minutes. Time may vary depending on the size of the potatoes. Test doneness by poking with a paring knife. The knife should slide right in.
  2. While potatoes are steaming, heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet until melted. Add onions and cook three minutes until starting to soften. Add garlic, cabbage, and the white parts of the scallions and cook for 5 more minutes or until the cabbage is softened but not completely wilted. Remove from heat.
  3. Place milk and remaining tablespoon butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl and heat until warm.
  4. When potatoes are steamed, remove from pot and drain water. Return potatoes to pot and add warmed milk mixture and mash with a potato masher or ricer if you prefer smoother potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Add cabbage mixture to mashed potatoes and stir to combine. Taste for seasoning. For serving, place potatoes in a bowl, make a well in the top and add another pat of butter if desired. Top with the green parts of the scallions.
