Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 lbs potatoes
2 onions
1 bay leaf
1 lb kale
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground pepper
1 lb smoked sausage
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose the right kale: Curly kale is the traditional choice for boerenkool, but you can also use other types of kale, such as lacinato kale or red kale. Just make sure to remove the tough stems before cooking.
  • Soak the smoked sausages: Soaking the smoked sausages in hot water before cooking helps to plump them up and make them more flavorful. You can also add a little bit of beer or apple cider to the soaking water for extra flavor.
  • Don't overcook the kale: Kale is a hearty green that can withstand a bit of cooking, but it's important not to overcook it. Overcooked kale will become tough and bitter. Aim to cook the kale until it is just tender, about 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes: Boerenkool is traditionally served with mashed potatoes, but you can also serve it with other sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or bread.

Conclusion:

Boerenkool met rookworst is a hearty and flavorful Dutch dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. The kale is tender and slightly bitter, while the smoked sausages are rich and smoky. The mashed potatoes add a creamy richness to the dish, and the whole thing is topped with a generous sprinkling of bacon.
