Gently mash the potatoes with a potato masher, but not too much. In a cup, combine cornstarch and a little water. Pour into soup while stirring with a whisk to thicken the soup. Add more if needed to get the thickness you want. Season with salt and pepper to taste. You can add 1/4tsp crushed red pepper now too, if desired.
Last of all, add kale, sausage and cream, heat through. Serve with shredded parmesan cheese and let everyone add their own crushed red pepper as desired.
