In a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the Halal Italian sausage and cook for about 5-7 minutes or until browned and crumbly.

Stir in the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-5 minutes.

Pour in the diced potatoes and the chicken or vegetable broth. Add the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine and bring to a boil.

Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

Stir in the heavy cream or coconut cream, allowing the soup to heat for an additional 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.

Ladle the soup into bowls, topping with fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy your deliciously creamy soup with crusty bread or crackers!
