Come preparare

1
Heat 20 ml of the olive oil in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, season with a pinch of salt, and sauté for 5 to 6 minutes until softened and translucent without browning.
2
Add the potatoes and stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer uncovered for 18 to 20 minutes, until the potatoes are very tender when pierced with a fork.
3
Blend the soup in the saucepan with an immersion blender until mostly smooth, leaving a little texture. If using a countertop blender, work in batches and vent the lid to release steam.

4
Return the soup to a gentle simmer. Add the chouriço and cook for 4 minutes so its smoky flavor seasons the broth and the slices heat through.
5
Stir in the kale ribbons and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, just until tender and vividly green. Season with the remaining salt and black pepper, tasting before adding more.
6
Ladle the soup into warm bowls, drizzle with the remaining olive oil, and serve immediately while the broth is hot and the kale is bright.

Perché questa ricetta funziona

Potatoes release starch as they simmer and blend into a naturally creamy base without dairy, while thinly sliced kale adds freshness and chouriço supplies smoky, savory depth.

Conservazione e riscaldamento

Come conservarla

Cool the soup within two hours, refrigerate in a covered container, and use within 3 days. Store the kale and sausage in the soup rather than separately.

Come riscaldarla

Reheat gently in a saucepan over medium-low heat until steaming throughout, stirring occasionally; do not boil vigorously, or the kale may lose its color and texture.
