Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups julienned yellow onions
2 pounds white cabbage, shredded
2 pounds red cabbage, shredded
1 pound lamb sausage link, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons Creole mustard
1 pound red skinned potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch slices
2 quarts chicken stock
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
Salt and pepper
Loaf of crusty bread

Directions

In a large sauce pot, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, saute the onions and cabbage for about 10 minutes, or until the onions are golden and the cabbage is wilted. Season with salt and pepper. Add the sausage, garlic, bay leaves, and mustard. Saute for 2 minutes. Add the potatoes and chicken stock. Bring the liquid up to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Stir in the basil. Simmer the soup for 30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Remove the bay leaves. Adjust the seasonings if needed. Ladle the soup into a shallow bowl and garnish with chopped chives. Serve with the crusty bread.

Warm and delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I confess that I did not stick to the recipe and I rarely measure ingredients, but this was delicious and super easy. I used... only green cabbage and much less than is called for in the recipe, I substituted the lamb sausage for ground lamb, and I didn't add the full 2 quarts of stock because I used less cabbage...and I found I kept adding a little more mustard here and there because it gave it such a wonderful flavor. The result, I'm sure, was the same...deliciousness! Next time, I'll stick to the recipe to see how it was intended. The flavor of the lamb is essential, so I would suggest not substituting it for another kind of meat.Read more

This stew just kept on getting better...! We loved it. If you are planning on storing leftovers in the fridge or so, beware... the stew changes color as the red cabbage gives up some of it's tint.Read more

Great soup
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Instead of lamb sausage, I used ground veal in this recipe and browned it with the onions. The flavors were wonderful. This... is definitely a keeper and great on cold winter days. Very easy to prepare!Read more

surprisingly delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I first made this stew several years ago after seeing Emeril prepare it on his show. I couldn't find lamb sausage, so I used... turkey sausage. I really think it's one of the best stew recipes out there.Read more
