Portuguese Caldo Verde with Cannellini Beans

Contributed by: Sheryl & Mel London

Sweet onion, sausage and beans; a great dish for dinner.

  • 1/4 - tsp Pepper
  • 3/4 - lb Kielbasa Sausage
  • 1/4 cup Olive Oil
  • 1 Large Sweet Walla Onion, chopped
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, finely minced
  • 4 Yukon Gold or Red Potatoes
  • 8 cups Chicken or Vegetable Stock
  • 12 cups Collard Greens or Kale, trimmed and chopped
  • 3/4 tsp Sea Salt
  • 2 cups cooked Cannellini Beans

Directions

Follow basic bean recipe for cooking raw beans.

Pierce the sausage, cover with water in a saucepan and bring to a boil Then lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes to remove excess fat. Drain, discard the water, slice the sausage into 3/4" slices and reserve.

In a 7-quart Dutch oven, heat the oil, add the onions and garlic and stir, sauteing for 2-3 minutes. Drain; add cubed potatoes and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the stock and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes.

Crush the potatoes lightly in the pot using a potato masher. Add the shredded greens and simmer for 15 minutes more; add the cooked beans and reserved sausage and season with salt and pepper.

*Baking potatoes should NOT be used; they disintegrate too easily rather than
maintaining their shape when lightly crushed.

Makes 8 servings.
