Creating your own Sausage, Potato, and Kale Soup is easy! Simply follow these steps:
- Cook the Sausage: In a large pot, over medium heat, add the Italian sausage. Cook until browned, breaking it apart into smaller pieces as it cooks.
- Sauté the Vegetables: Add the onion to the pot and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and sauté for an additional minute.
- Add the Broth: Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pot to incorporate any browned bits for added flavor.
- Incorporate the Potatoes: Add the diced potatoes to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce it to a simmer. Allow potatoes to cook for about 10 minutes or until fork-tender.
- Mix in the Kale: Stir in the chopped kale and let it wilt for about 2-3 minutes.
- Finish with Cream: Pour in the heavy cream (or milk) and add Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine. Heat through for another 3-4 minutes until heated.
- Adjust Seasoning: Taste the soup and adjust any seasoning to your liking. Add more salt, pepper, or Italian seasoning if desired.
- Serve Warm: Remove the pot from heat and serve your delicious soup warm!
By adhering to these simple steps, you’ll be able to whip up a comforting bowl of Sausage, Potato, and Kale Soup with ease.
