Method

  1. Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a large saucepan. Add the onions, garlic and chorizo, then cook for 5 mins until soft. Throw in the potatoes and cook for a few mins more. Pour in the stock, season and bring to the boil. Cook everything for 10 mins until the potatoes are on the brink of collapse.
  2. Use a masher to squash the potatoes into the soup, then bring back to the boil. Add the kale and cook for 5 mins until tender. Ladle the soup into bowls, then serve drizzled with the remaining olive oil.

Cooking kale

Slowly cooking shredded kale with olive oil and garlic and serving as a vegetable side dish, instead of spinach.

Health benefits

Kale is an excellent source of anti-cancer compounds. It is rich in immune-supporting nutrients, such as beta-carotene and vitamin C, which help to maintain a healthy skin and respiratory system, and can also minimise the duration of a cold.

    I make a soup similar to this but use chickpeas instead of potatoes

    Good potential, but you really do not need to use the olive oil as the chorizo chucks out a lot of oil in the cooking process and in my opinion this needs to be skimmed off once you add the stock. Would also recommend adding some tomato puree and tabasco for a bit more flavour.

    This was delicious, but I agree with Belkey's suggestion re no extra oil required.

    Great soup, perfect for fall/winter! I didn't use any olive oil and added some passata for a little extra flavour. This soup also tasted better the day after... much more "chorizo-y". I will definitely make this again!

    Absolutely delicious. I would agree with not adding the extra olive oil on top - I just used a tablespoon. Also instead of mashing the potatoes, take out the chorizo and blend the soup before adding the chorizo and kale. I don't know why but this makes a huge difference and it is much better. Also used savoy cabbage when kale is out of season.
