Croatian Cabbage Soup With Pork image

Braised pork bits and shredded cabbage in a mildly spicy broth. Amazingly sweet and flavorful -- and even better reheated the next day. LOW- Carb, too! Thank you to my friend Tanja for sharing this recipe! I use a tablespoon of Kryddman Swedish spice (when I have it) in place of the dry spices listed but these will work just as well! Freezes well for a healthy make-ahead meal! Note: I use organic ingredients (optional).

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 -3 lbs pork, meaty center cut with bones
3 garlic cloves, minced
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 head cabbage, sliced to 1/4 inch bite size strips (1 large or 2 small)

1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
3/4 teaspoon onion powder
3/4 teaspoon chili powder

Steps:

  • Trim and debone pork, retain bones, cut meat into bite size strips, rinse away bone fragments and pat dry.
  • In large soup pan, sauté garlic in half of the olive oil until hot.
  • Remove pan from heat to add pork bones and meat to hot oil. Sear meat and bones on med-high heat until juices flow, scraping and turning to evenly brown (Approximately 10 minutes).
  • Add shredded cabbage, along with remaining olive oil. Stir continuously and cook until cabbage wilts and caramelizes slightly. (Approximately 15 min.).
  • Add broth and spices and bring to a boil. Stir well and reduce heat to low. Simmer for approximately 1 to 2 hours (to desired tenderness).
  • Remove bones and serve immediately (or refrigerate and reheat).
