"Caldo Verde" (Green Broth Soup) 
  Ingredients for 4 

500 g / 1.1 pounds of potatoes
1 small meat chouriço (meat sausage)
1 or 2 garlic cloves
4 tbsp of olive oil

200 g (7,05 oz) of collard greens cut into very fine julienne
Salt to taste

 


Preparation

Peel the potatoes and bake them in 2 litres of water with the chouriço and the garlic cloves.
Mash the potatoes once they’re cooked.
Bring them to heat
In the meantime, wash the collard greens several times (until the water is no longer green).
Add the greens to the boiling mash potatoes.
Add half the olive oil and leave the collard greens cooking.
When it’s time to serve, rectify the flavour and add the remaining olive oil. Serve with sliced chouriço.
* The chouriço can be replaced by salpicão (pickled pork sausage).
