Ingredients

• 2 pounds potatoes (starchy, such as Russet)
• 1 pound kale (fresh, chopped)
• 1 piece rookworst sausage
• 0.75 cup milk
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon mustard (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and chop the potatoes into large cubes. Rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to medium and simmer the potatoes for about 15 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 4

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the rookworst according to the package instructions. Typically, rookworst is boiled or steamed for about 15 minutes.

Step 5

In a separate pot, bring a small amount of water to a boil. Add the chopped kale and steam it for about 5-7 minutes until softened. Drain and set aside.

Step 6

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain the water and return the potatoes to the pot. Add the steamed kale, butter, and milk to the pot.

Step 7

Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes and kale together until smooth and creamy. Stir well to combine.

Step 8

Season the mash with black pepper and additional salt to taste.

Step 9

Serve the stamppot hot, topped with slices of rookworst sausage. Optionally, add a dollop of mustard on the side for a traditional touch.
