4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
1 small head of cabbage, chopped
1/2 cup (120ml) chicken broth (or vegetable broth for a vegetarian version)
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Prepare the Ingredients:
Slice the smoked sausage into rounds, peel and dice the potatoes, and chop the cabbage into bite-sized pieces.
