I have always enjoyed kielbasa and cabbage (or sauerkraut) -
I use chicken broth as a base (preferably homemade - but chicken soup base or bouillon can be used in a pinch).
I place my kielbasa in my soup pot and add my broth and let it come to a simmer, seasoning with Kosher salt, fresh ground black pepper, fresh parsley, diced celery and diced onion - almost as if I were making my chicken soup.
I add to this my chunks of carrot and potato and my cabbage when my kielbasa is just about cooked. You can add caraway if you want. When I don't have cabbage I add egg noodles or macaroni of some sort.
Sop it all up with a good rye bread!
Occasionally I have added broccoli florets - but usually I don't. It's a really quick soup to make and very tasty. Easily adaptable too.
