Tender cabbage and potatoes mash together with garlic, then fry in bacon fat until a brown crust forms underneath.
A rough mash gives trinxat (potato, cabbage and bacon hash) its contrast of soft vegetables and crisp edges. Bacon supplies both the seasoning and the fat for frying, so there is little else to add.
Drain the vegetables thoroughly and let their steam escape before mashing. A wet mixture steams in the skillet instead of forming the crust that makes the hash worth turning.
Method
Cover russet potatoes and cabbage with water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for until both are very tender. Drain well, return to the warm pot and stir over low heat for to dry.
Meanwhile, cook bacon in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat for until crisp and its fat renders. Lift out the bacon, leaving about 2 tbsp fat in the pan. Add garlic and stir for until fragrant.
Roughly mash the potatoes and cabbage with salt, black pepper and half the bacon. Press into the skillet and cook over medium heat for until browned underneath. Turn in broad sections and cook for until the second side is crisp. Sprinkle with remaining bacon and parsley.
Forkue tips
- Turn the hash in sections rather than trying to flip one heavy cake; the broken edges make extra crisp bits.
