Rumbledethumps

Rumbledethumps is the Scottish version of the traditional English dish bubble and squeak. It is most delicious on its own or as an accompaniment to sausages or meat dishes.

The wonderful name Rumbledethumps comes from the noise made in the kitchen as the tatties (potatoes) and cabbage are rumbled and thumped in the preparation.

Ingredients
1 1/2lbs/750g mashed tatties
1/2 par boiled green cabbage
a tablespoon melted unsalted butter
2 finely sliced spring (salad) onions

2 Combine the mixture thoroughly.
3 Add the butter.
4 Mix again thoroughly.
