Since we are still in the middle of Winter, nothing is better than a warm and comfortable bowl of soup to warm you up.


Today I make Kartoffelsuppe, which is a German Potato Soup. This German Potato Soup recipe is loaded with healthy veggies, smoky sausage, and is absolutely packed with flavor! And that flavor is ever better the next day so be sure to double the recipe so you can enjoy those leftovers.



Ingredients:

2 lbs potatoes, diced

2 carrots, diced

2 celery stalks, diced

1 leek, sliced and rinsed

1 onion, diced

5 cups vegetable or chicken broth

2 tbsp butter

1 cup heavy cream

8 oz smoked sausage, sliced

2 bay leaves

Salt and pepper, to taste

Pinch of nutmeg

Fresh parsley, for garnish



First thing is to prepare all the Vegetables. Dice the potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, and slice the leek.



Next saute the onions, leeks, carrots, and celery in butter until soft. Bring to a simmer. Then add the potatoes, broth, and bay leaves. Simmer for 20-25 minutes until the potatoes are tender.



Next you need to blend some of the soup to get a creamy texture. Remove bay leaves and partially blend the soup for a creamy texture. Pour back in.




Finally stir in the cream and sausage, season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Heat through and serve. Enjoy!
