Ingredients
- 1 lb savoy cabbage 450 g/ about ½ a not very large cabbage
- 1 lb potatoes 450 g
- 75 smoked streaky bacon preferably one thicker piece
- 1 onion
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 lb ground meat half beef, half pork, 450 g
- 1 teaspoon sweet ground paprika
- 1 teaspoon hot ground paprika
- 8 ½ cups beef or vegetable broth 2 liter
- fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- small bunch of chives
- Creme Fraiche /smetana/sour cream to serve, optional
Instructions
- Chop the savoy cabbage into small pieces. Cut the potatoes into small cubes. Chop the bacon and the onion finely as well.
- Saute: Heat the oil in a heavy bottom soup pot. Add the bacon and the onion to the pot and let cook until the onion is translucent and some of the bacon fat has rendered. Add the ground meat and cook until brown, stirring and breaking the lumps in between.
- Add spices: Both sorts of ground paprika, salt, and pepper, and stir well.
- Add the savoy cabbage, potatoes, and beef or vegetable broth to the soup pot. Stir well, cover, leaving a small crack open, and let cook on medium-low heat for about 30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
- Adjust the taste with salt and generously with freshly ground black pepper.
- Serve: Sprinkle with finely chopped chives and serve with a dollop of crème fraiche, if desired. The soup can be reheated; it tastes even better the next day.
