Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Brown sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it into bite-sized pieces with a spoon, 5–6 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add potatoes, onion, and carrots. Stir to coat in the sausage fat, then pour in 4 cups water and a pinch of salt.

  3. Step 3

    Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered until potatoes are fork-tender, 8–10 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in kale and cream. Simmer for 2 minutes until kale wilts and turns bright green.

  5. Step 5

    Taste and season with salt and black pepper. Ladle into bowls and serve hot with fresh herbs if you have them.
