According to my dictionary boerenkool is (curly) kale or borecole.
You're right about the smoked sausage. "Boerenkool met worst" is mashed potatoes with kale and smoked sausage, about as Dutch as a dish can get! Just had some earlier this week.
Apparently the ad is for the canned variant of this dish, handy for shipping to the colonies where the ingredients would be hard to get.
