Creamy Colcannon-inspired soup filled with potatoes, cabbage, and kale for cozy comfort and rich flavor.

# Needed Ingredients:

→ Main Vegetables

01 - 4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced
02 - 1 cup finely chopped green cabbage
03 - 1 cup chopped kale, stems removed
04 - 1 medium leek, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
05 - 1 medium yellow onion, diced

→ Liquids and Dairy

06 - 3 cups vegetable broth
07 - 2 cups whole milk or unsweetened plant-based milk

→ Fats and Seasoning

08 - 4 tablespoons unsalted butter or vegan butter substitute
09 - Salt and black pepper, to taste
10 - 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg

→ Garnish

11 - 2 green onions, thinly sliced

# Preparation Steps:

01 - In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add diced onion and sliced leek, cooking until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
02 - Add diced potatoes to the pot and stir well. Continue cooking for 3 minutes. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
03 - Reduce heat to low and add chopped cabbage and kale. Simmer for 15–20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
04 - Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth, leaving some potato chunks if a rustic texture is desired.
05 - Stir in the milk, then season with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Warm the soup gently over low heat for 5 minutes, avoiding a boil.
06 - Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve hot.

# Supplementary Details:

01 - For a richer flavor, use a mix of butter and olive oil for sautéing. The soup texture can be customized by how much you blend it.
