Servings:

Peel and chop garlic and onion. Peel and chop potatoes. Zest half of the lemon. Slice sausages on the diagonal into 2-3cm pieces (or peel and break up sausage meat).
4 cloves garlic, 1 brown onion, 2 potatoes, 1 lemon, 500 g pork sausage
Place a large pot over medium high heat and add oil, onion and ¾ of the garlic. Stir until fragrant then add sausage. Saute until onion is soft and sausage is crispy and brown.
2 teaspoon olive oil, 500 g pork sausage
Add ¾ of the lemon zest and paprika and stir until fragrant.
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
Add white wine, chicken stock and potatoes, and bring to a boil. Add white beans. While the stock is heating up, tear cavalo nero leaves directly into the pot. Once boiling, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes.
2 potatoes, ½ cup white wine, 1.5 L chicken stock, 1 can white beans (cannellini or butter beans), 120 g Cavolo nero
Juice lemon. Add half the juice to the pot, and then add the other half to a small food processor or chopper.
1 lemon
Add the remaining garlic and remaining lemon zest, olive oil and salt and pepper. Blitz well and set aside.
3 tablespoon olive oil, salt and pepper
To serve, dish up hearty bowls of soup and drizzle over lemon garlic oil.
Kids may prefer to skip the lemon oil, less of the cavolo nero in their bowl, and you can slice their sausage for them to make it easier to eat.
