Fresh List Recipe
Comfort Soup al Montreal
- 4 large russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 4 (4 ounce) links hot Italian sausage, casings removed
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 bunch kale, ribs removed, chopped
- 3 quarts chicken stock
- 1/4 cup hot pepper sauce
Directions
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
Meanwhile, heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and stir in the sausage. Break up the sausage with a spatula, and cook and stir until the sausage is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Remove the sausage to drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Stir the onion into the sausage drippings; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the kale, and cook and stir for 2 minutes. Pour in the chicken stock; stir in the sausage and potatoes, and return to a simmer. Stir in the hot sauce just before serving. Optional: Add 1 cup heavy cream before serving.
