Later on I'll peel potatoes, cook them. Then steam the leftover kale. It's something my mom would make often. There's a Dutch name for it, I don't know high Dutch she spoke a diolect, so she called it, sounds like "moose".
I'll make chicken with it.

Funny years later to find out both my brother and I love it but my sister doesn't at all. I made it as a meal for my brother and his wife years ago. He said "how did you cook this? That's the best kale I've had!" As a joke he turned to his wife and said "how come you can't make it like this?" I didn't tell him the secret is to do it like mom, put a LOT of butter in when mashing with the potatoes. Use a lot more kale than potatoes. He likes vinegar on it. So much so, he brought the missing vinegar bottle I didn't own. There are good memories coming to me lately.

@toomuchreality is the kale and potatoes dish maybe Boerenkool Stamppot? The dinner you're making sounds great.
I learned how to make it from a family member who grew up in the Netherlands.


I'm having homemade spinach-cheese quiche and a croissant.
Yes. That's it! Mom called carrots potatoes and onions mashed together stompot. Maybe she was teasing me a bit because I was always asking what's for dinner when I got home from school. Some days I'd ask she starred saying, potatoes, or soup.. guess she was tired lol
