- In a large saucepan over medium heat, hot the quarter-c. extra virgin olive oil. Add in the onion and saute/fry till tender, about 8 min. Add in the garlic and potatoes and saute/fry over medium-high heat for a few min longer. Add in the water and the 2 tsp. salt. Cover and simmer over medium heat till the potatoes are very soft when pierced with a fork, about 20 min.
- Meanwhile, rinse the greens well, drain and remove the tough stems. Working in batches, stack the leaves, roll them up like a cigar and cut crosswise into very thin strips. Set aside.
- In a saute/fry pan over medium heat, cook the sausage, turning to brown all sides, till hard and cooked through, about 10 min. Let cold, then cut into slices one-half inch thick. Set aside.
- When the potatoes are ready, remove from the heat and, using a wooden spoon or possibly a potato masher, mash them to a puree in the water in the pan. Return the pan to low heat, add in the sliced sausage and cook, stirring, for 5 min. Add in the greens, stir well and simmer, uncovered, for 3 to 5 min. (Don't overcook; the greens should remain bright green and slightly crunchy.) Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Ladle the soup into warmed bowls, drizzle each serving with 1 tsp. extra virgin olive oil and serve warm.
