Cabbage, Potatoes and Sausage ~ An Instant Pot Recipe

October 19, 2016 By Deanna Piercy 23 Comments

I’m no fan of cold weather except when it comes to soup or “stoup” (somewhere between soup and stew). The other night I pulled out my Instant Pot and made this delicious cabbage, potatoes and sausage dish which we all loved.

One of the things I love about making soups or stews in the Instant Pot rather than stovetop is that I can set it and leave it alone. Don’t get me wrong…sometimes I enjoy hanging out in the kitchen stirring and piddling about, maybe enjoying a glass of wine as I cook. But there are days when I have other things to do – or maybe just want to read and drink tea in the library – and it’s nice to know that dinner is cooking away on its own without further attention from me.

This particular cabbage dish is easy, economical, and very hearty. It also makes great leftovers so while you can definitely cut this recipe in half, don’t hesitate to make the full amount if you have the means of heating up leftovers for lunch.

I made it with smoked sausage but it would also be good with bacon or leftover ham. You can also make a vegetarian version by omitting the meat and using vegetable broth. A couple of drops of Liquid Smoke could be added to give it a smoky, meaty flavor if desired.

I served it over cooked Amish egg noodles and sprinkled a little grated cheese and freshly ground pepper on top. A piece of toasted baguette and really good butter is all you need to complete this meal.

    This recipe: http://lifewithdee.com/cabbage-potatoes-and-sausage-an-instant-pot-recipe/
    calls for chicken broth in step 5 but I don’t see that in the list of ingredients. How much broth do you add?

      Oops! I fixed it. One quart. I’m so glad you caught that – thanks!

    I’m going to be making this the fist time this weekend. I was curious.. 1 quart of broth seems like a lot of liquid. I was thinking about trying with half that much.. do you think it will still come out well? I just did not want a lot of broth to go to waste, as my family tends to not eat it 🙂

      It depends on how many servings you need. A quart is 4 cups and if you’re making this as a main course I would say this recipe makes 4 or 5 generous servings. If you want it to be less of a soup you could certainly use less liquid. I don’t know how helpful that is. I tend to cook a lot “by feel”. Ha!

        There are only 3 of us this weekend, so I think I’ll cut it down a bit – thanks so much!

    Never even looked at the manual because it seems none of them are worth a hoot any more. Went straight to the Internet and found your site. I found it to be just the ticket. A half hour later I had dinner on the table and was getting rave reviews! Thanks souch for the concise instructions, videos, and tasty recipe.

      I’m so glad to hear you liked the recipe. I barely skimmed the manual myself. I read a few things online and then just started experimenting.

    Thanks for the recipe! I mostly followed it, but used much less broth (1-1.5 cups), threw the cabbage in on top of the potatoes and cooked it all together for 5 minutes (QR). At the end there was still more liquid than I preferred so I threw in leftover rice and stirred it all up. It was delish and super easy, everything was cooked perfectly in just 5 minutes!

      I’m glad you enjoyed it and were able to adapt it to your own tastes. I rarely follow a recipe precisely myself. 😉

    I am wanting to add frozen bagged shrimp with this. When would be a good time to add them. New to the instant pot world.

      I haven’t tried it myself but I would layer the frozen shrimp on top after you add and stir in the cabbage. Cook 5 minutes as in the original recipe and be sure to do the quick release when done. If you try this I’d love to hear how it turned out.

        This was amazing and my whole family loved it so much. The only thing we added was frozen shrimp at the last 5 minutes.

    I oven roasted tomatoes, and added them, I also added fresh garlic and celery to the onions. It’s cooking now, so not sure how it will taste! 😊

    I’m curious-were the potatoes supposed to turn to mush making it a thick broth/sauce? I saw where someone above said the cooked potatoes and cabbage together for 5. That is how I may try it next time

      It worked for me as written and as you can see in the photo, the potatoes still held their shape. I’m making this again this week and will double check the timing. I did a little research, though, and apparently different types of potatoes take different amounts of time. The size of the chunks would likely matter as well.

    I just received the Mealthy Pot whiuch is very similar to my daughter’s Instant Pot. Can I use the same recipes in it?Same concept just different pot. The recipes sound so good.

      I’m not personally familiar with the Mealthy Pot but I would think so. Maybe start with something very forgiving, such as a soup recipe. Or beans. I’d love to hear your experiences after you try some of my recipes.

    This was excellent!! My husband is doing low carb, so I subbed Kohlrabi for the potatoes. Threw uncooked frozen shrimp in with the cabbage and cut back on the cook time for 2-3 minutes for both steps.

      I just love it when people adapt recipes to suit their needs. I’m so glad this worked for you. My husband is supposed to be reducing his carbs so I ought to give your version a try. Thanks for sharing!
