Colcannon Soup Flavorful Comforting (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Vegetables

01 - 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
02 - 1 cup green cabbage, finely chopped
03 - 1 cup kale, stems removed and chopped
04 - 1 medium leek, sliced
05 - 1 onion, diced
06 - 2 green onions, sliced, for garnish

→ Liquids

07 - 3 cups vegetable broth
08 - 2 cups milk or plant-based milk

→ Other

09 - 4 tablespoons butter or vegan substitute
10 - Salt and pepper, to taste
11 - 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg

# Instructions:

01 - In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sliced leek, cooking until soft and translucent, approximately 5 minutes.
02 - Stir in the diced potatoes and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a gentle boil.
03 - Reduce heat to low and add the chopped cabbage and kale. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until the potatoes are fork-tender.
04 - Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until silky. For a chunkier texture, leave some potato pieces intact.
05 - Stir in the milk and season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Heat gently until warmed through, about 5 minutes.
06 - Ladle into bowls and top with sliced green onions before serving.

# Notes:

01 - For extra creaminess, use full-fat milk or unsweetened plant-based alternatives.
02 - A balance of potato chunk and pureed soup yields the best texture.
