This soup is the dish par excellence that will lift your spirits...
...especially when you add smoked sausage, some nice potatoes and garlic. Watch:
I literally fell in love with this soup from the first spoonful.
I would love to have you all around my table and serve you each a large ladleful of this steaming soup!
But failing that, I'm going to invite you to prepare this recipe instead. Because this soup is just magic!
Let's start with the main ingredient:a small green cabbage . We're going to use it entirely in this soup.
It will make a mountain of green vegetables.
But don't worry because it will lose volume once added to the soup.
The second most important ingredient is the sausage .
You can use any kind of smoked sausage...
For example Montbéliard, Morteau, German Bratwurst sausages or even like here Polish Kielbasa sausage.
Personally, I like Kielbasa with their taste of garlic and cumin.
But you can also use traditional pork sausages .
And why not choose chicken or turkey sausages? and even vegan sausages ? See for yourself!
Start by sautéing the sausages in a large pot until browned.
Sauté the rest of your vegetables and all the cabbage, then add the other remaining ingredients.
Let the soup simmer until the potatoes are nice and tender.
Season with salt and pepper (I recommend good quality black pepper), and soon...
...these delicious bowls of cabbage soup will be ready to serve.
I hope you like it as much as I do, my friends!
