Kale Soup or Caldo Verde Traditional Portuguese Soup

by Milena Betencourt
(Johannesburg, South Africa) This soup is a traditional Portuguese soup that my Gran often makes, and I enjoy it so much that is why it is my favourite soup.

Here is the recipe:

1 kg sliced potatoes
20-25 ml olive oil
2 sliced onions
6-8 kale leaves or
1 clove garlic
1 head of sliced cabbage
1.5 litres water
spicy Portuguese sausage(chouriso)
salt to taste


Boil onions, potatoes, garlic in the water. When the potatoes are almost cooked, add salt and olive oil. Mash everything. Return it to the saucepan and add a little more water and bring to the boil.

Roll 2-3 cabbage leaves tightly together, and cut it into thin slices. Add cabbage to boiling soup, cook for 5-10 minutes. Leaves should remain crisp.

Just before the soup is ready, slice the Portuguese spicy sausage and place them into the pot. It gives the soup an interesting flavour. Serve the soup with slices of mealie bread (broa - portuguese bread) or any bread of your choice.

Serves 4-6.
