Steps:
- Add olive oil to a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, and fennel seed. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic, salt, and thyme, and cook, stirring, for another minute.
- Add the vegetable broth and potatoes. Increase heat to medium high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Stir in the kale and the heavy whipping cream and let simmer, uncovered, for another 10 minutes until the kale is tender. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Meanwhile, if adding sausage to half, set a medium pot over medium heat. Splash with a touch of olive oil and brown the sausage. Once the sausage has browned, transfer 3 cups of the soup to the pot with the sausage. Stir gently and simmer for another minute or two.
- Serve.
