A hearty mountain of mashed potatoes folded with curly kale and drizzled with gravy — the ultimate Dutch cold-weather comfort dish.

Ingredients

1 Boil potatoes in salted water for 15 min.
2 Add chopped kale on top of potatoes, cover and steam together for 10 min more.
3 Drain, add butter and warm milk. Mash together vigorously — some like it chunky, some smooth.
4 Season generously with salt and pepper.
5 Serve as a mountain on the plate with a well of gravy on top and smoked beef sausage on the side.
