Onion, diced 1 medium
Carrot, diced 1 medium
Celery ribs, diced 2
Garlic cloves, finely chopped 4
Red chili flakes 1/2 teaspoon
Potatoes, peeled and cubed 750g (1.5 lb)
Chicken stock 1.25 liters (5 cups)
Full-fat milk 300ml (1 1/4 cups)
Cheddar cheese, grated 100g (3.5 oz)
Fresh parsley, roughly chopped 30g (1/2 cup)
Salt and pepper To taste

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Kielbasa: Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the kielbasa and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until slightly crispy. Remove and set aside.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same pot, add the onion, carrot, and celery. Cook for 5 minutes, or until softened.
  3. Add Flavorings: Stir in the garlic and red chili flakes, and cook for another minute.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Add the potatoes and chicken stock to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 10-12 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  5. Add Milk and Kielbasa: Temper the milk by mixing a ladle of hot soup with it. Pour the tempered milk into the pot, along with the cooked kielbasa.
  6. Melt the Cheese: Stir in the grated cheddar cheese until melted.
  7. Thicken and Season: Simmer for 2-3 more minutes, or until the soup thickens slightly. Stir in the fresh parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve: Divide the soup into bowls and serve immediately, with additional grated cheddar cheese on top, if desired.
