Ingredients
  

  • 4 smoked sausages or Morteau sausages
  • 1/2 head green cabbage cut into strips
  • 4 medium potatoes peeled and cut into large chunks
  • 4 carrots sliced into rounds
  • 2 turnips peeled and cubed (optional)
  • 1 medium onion studded with 2 cloves
  • 2 cloves garlic peeled
  • 1 bouquet bouquet garni thyme, bay leaf, parsley
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • 2 liters water or vegetable/chicken broth

Equipment

  • Large pot or Dutch oven
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Colander for draining the cabbage
  • Wooden spoon for stirring
  • Optional: ladle for serving

Method
 

  1. Wash all the veggies; cut the cabbage into thin strips, peel and chop the potatoes, slice the carrots, and dice the turnips if using.
  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; add cabbage strips and cook for about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a big pot or Dutch oven, bring 2 liters of water or broth to a boil; add the studded onion, garlic cloves, bouquet garni, and sausages. Simmer for about 10 minutes.
  4. Remove the sausages and keep them warm; add the potatoes, carrots, turnips, and blanched cabbage to the pot. Season with salt and pepper, then simmer for 20–30 minutes.
  5. About 5 minutes before serving, return the sausages to the pot to warm through.
  6. Spoon the stew into bowls, placing sausages on top and ladling some broth over. Serve with mustard or crusty bread.

Notes

Try adding a teaspoon of smoked paprika to enhance the smoky flavor. If using, substitute smoked tofu for a vegetarian option, and feel free to use savoy cabbage or kale instead of green cabbage. The stew tastes even better the next day as the flavors meld together, so don't hesitate to make it in advance. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
