Take a large, saucepan , pour in the stock, colcannon, bean sprouts and chopped vegetables and mix it well, then place the pan on medium low flame bring to a simmer. Place the lid on and let it simmer for 10 minutes stirring in between.

In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, pepper powder and colcannon. Then slowly pour in the buttermilk to bind the mixture into a biscuit dough ( do knead the dough too much).

Once the vegetables in the pot are cooked and tender, stir in the shredded ham. Wet your hands a little and shape the dough into small ping-pong sized balls. Drop them on top of the soup. Put the lid back on the pot and simmer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes with a spoon, gently turn the dough over and simmer for a further 10 minutes.
