German Kale and Sausage Stew
Ingredients
  • 1 pound kale, stemmed and chopped
  • 3 slices bacon, chopped
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 2 cups water, or as needed to cover
  • 2 teaspoons beef bouillon granules
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
  • 1/2 pound thickly sliced cooked ham, or to taste
  • 4 links kielbasa sausage
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Insert chopped kale into a large pot of vigorously bubbling water and cook for 1 minute.
2
Transfer the kale with a perforated spoon to a separate container and set it aside momentarily.
3
Cook crispy bacon strips in a spacious skillet over medium heat until they have turned golden brown, stirring constantly and checking frequently every 30 seconds, approximately 8 minutes.
4
Introduce sliced onion into the skillet and cook until it has lost its rawness, becoming translucent and pale, roughly 5 minutes.
5
Add the blanched kale to the skillet and cook until it has transformed into a vibrant green color, starting to soften slightly, around 4 minutes.
6
Add enough water to cover the ingredients and bring the mixture to a rolling boil.
7
Gradually decrease the heat to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, and add bouillon cubes and ground nutmeg into the mixture.
8
Simmer the kale mixture until it has reached a tender consistency, approximately 30 minutes.
9
Add a dash of mustard to the skillet.
10
Arrange sliced ham and cooked sausage links over the kale mixture, allowing them to cook together for about 35 minutes.
11
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
