Ingredients
- 2 lbs potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 1 lb kale, stems removed and finely chopped
- 1 cup milk
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 4 smoked sausages (such as rookworst)
Instructions
- Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes.
- In the last 5 minutes of cooking, add the chopped kale to the pot. Cook until wilted and tender.
- Drain the potatoes and kale well, then return to the pot. Add milk, butter, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Mash until smooth and well combined.
- While the potatoes cook, grill or pan-fry the smoked sausages over medium heat until heated through and lightly browned, about 8 minutes.
- Serve the stamppot hot, topped with a smoked sausage and a pat of butter if desired.
Tips
- For extra flavor, add a dollop of mustard or pickled onions on the side.
- Leftover stamppot can be pan-fried the next day as a crispy potato cake.
- Substitute kale with other hearty greens like spinach or endive for variation.
