Original Recipe

Dyma fersiwn traddodiadol Cymreig o 'champ' Gogledd yr Iwerddon, gan ddefnyddio cennin yn lle bresych. Yn draddodiadol dim ond tatws a chennin a ddefnyddwyd ond mae ychwanegu ychydig o arlleg a chennin syfi yn codi'r blas i rywbeth arbennig.

Cynhwysion:

900g o datws wedi eu plicio a'u ciwbio
50g o fenyn
2 genhinen wedi eu torri'n stribedi
1 clof o arlleg, wedi ei dorri'n fân
2 gwlwm o gennin syfi wedi eu torri'n fân
halen a phupur du i flasu

Dull:

Dowch a sosban o ddŵr gyda ychydig o halen i ferwi yna ychwanegwch y tatws a berwch am 10 munud. Draeniwch yn dda yna ychwanegwch halen a phupur a stwnsiwch yn dda. Mewn padell toddwch y menyn ac ychwanegwch y cennin, y garlleg a hanner y cennin syfi. Ffriwch y cyfan nes eu bod yn feddal yna ychwanegwch i'r tatws, ynghyd a gweddill y cennin syfi, a stwnsiwch y cyfan nes yn llyfn. Ychwanegwch ychwaneg o halen a phupur (os oes angen) yna gweinwch fel ychwanegiad i unrhyw bryd bwyd. Mae'n arbennig o dda gyda chig gwyllt, eidion a chig oen. Os yn defnyddio gyda chig oen gelli cyfnewid ychydig o fintys ffrés yn lle tipyn o'r cennin syfi.

English Translation


This is a traditional Welsh version of the Northern Irish 'champ' that uses leeks instead of cabbage. Traditionally, only potatoes and leeks were used in the dish, but the addition of a little garlic and a few chives does lift the flavour into something special.

Ingredients:

900g potatoes, peeled and cubed
50g butter
2 leeks, cut into fine strips
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
2 bunches of chives, finely chopped
salt and black pepper, to taste

Method:

Bring a pan of lightly-salted water to the boil then add the potatoes and boil for 10 minutes (or until the potatoes are tender). Drain thoroughly then add salt and black pepper and mash well.

Melt the butter in a pan and add the leeks, garlic and half the chives. Fry the mixture until the leeks are soft then add to the mashed potatoes along with the remaining chives. Mash everything until smooth.

Adjust the seasonings (if necessary) then serve as an accompaniment to just about any meal. This mash is especially good with wild game, beef and lamb. If you are using it to accompany lamb then you can exchange a little mint for some of the chives.
