Prepare your ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. Dice your potatoes, chop the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the sausage.
Cook the sausage: In a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced sausage and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
Add vegetables: Stir in the diced onions and carrots to the pot. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until the onions become translucent.
Add garlic: Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.
Combine with potatoes and broth: Add the diced potatoes and stock. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 15 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and herbs. Adjust spices as desired.
Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy. Garnish with fresh herbs or sour cream if desired.
