This satisfying soup brings together a classic pairing – meat and potatoes. The rich flavors really come together in this recipe, while the sour cream adds a bright, tangy finish.

Preparation
STEP 1

Heat a medium soup pot to medium-high. Add about 1 tablespoon oil, then add sausages and brown very well on all sides. Remove sausages from pan and set aside.

STEP 2

Add leeks and potatoes (add more oil if needed). Season well with salt and pepper. Stir frequently until leeks start to become tender.

STEP 3

Meanwhile, slice the sausage into bite-size pieces. When the leeks are tender, add the sausage back to the pot, along with the caraway seeds. Stir for about 20 seconds.

STEP 4

Add the broth, cabbage and mustard. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. Simmer for about 15 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

STEP 5

Serve hot, topped with a dollop of sour cream.
