1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 medium onion, coarsely chopped
2 tbsp oil
1 1/2 cup chicken stock or bouillon
4 medium potatoes, quartered
1 stalk celery, chopped

Cut the kale leaves into 1/2-inch-wide strips. Blanch them in lightly salted boiling water for one minute. Set aside.

Saute the garlic and onion in the oil until lightly browned.

Stir; season with salt and pepper, garnish with sour cream and serve.
