Peel potatoes and cut into quarters; place in medium saucepan. Pour in just enough cold water to cover; add 1/2 tsp (2 mL) of the salt. Cover and bring to boil; reduce heat to medium and cook until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain.

Mash potatoes; add cabbage mixture and remaining salt. Stir well. Season with pepper, if using.
