- Meanwhile bring another pot of water (filled about ¾ full) to the boil. Add your chopped cabbage along with a pinch of salt, and boil for about 2 minutes. Lower your heat to medium and simmer for another 8 minutes or so.
- Once your potatoes and cabbage are tender drain. Add the potatoes back to the pot, along with 5 tablespoons of butter, and your milk. Mash the potatoes until creamy and smooth. Then add your drained cabbage, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Last but not least, add your sliced green onions and stir. Place the potatoes in a bowl, and make a shallow well in the middle. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the well, and add a generous amount of pepper.
