Method

Prep 30 min · cook 210 min
  1. Soak the chickpeas overnight in warm salted water.
  2. Bring the water to the boil with the beef, chicken and panceta, skim, then add the drained chickpeas in a net bag. Simmer gently for 2½ hours.
  3. Add the carrots and potatoes for the last 30 minutes. Cook the chorizo and morcilla separately in a little water for 20 minutes, so their fat stays out of the broth.
  4. Cook the shredded cabbage separately in salted water for 15 minutes, drain, and fry it briefly with the garlic in the olive oil.
  5. Strain off 2 litres of the broth and cook the noodles in it for 3–4 minutes for the soup.
  6. Serve the soup first, then the chickpeas and vegetables, then the sliced meats. Leftovers make ropa vieja the next day.
