Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh kale
- 4 medium potatoes
- 2 links smoked sausage
- 1 medium onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 500 milliliters chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
Instructions
Wash the kale thoroughly in cold water. Remove the tough stems and roughly chop the leaves. Set them aside.
Peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes. Set aside.
Slice the smoked sausages into rounds. Finely dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the chopped kale and sauté for 5 minutes until it starts to wilt.
Add the diced potatoes, smoked sausage slices, chicken or vegetable broth, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 35-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the flavors have melded together.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Stir in the white vinegar just before serving for a touch of brightness.
Serve warm alongside crusty bread or as a standalone meal. Enjoy!
