Ingredients

• 500 grams Lamb, Chicken, or Veal (boneless, cubed)
• 500 grams Green cabbage (chopped)
• 1 large Onion (finely diced)
• 2 medium Carrots (sliced)
• 3 Garlic cloves (minced)
• 3 medium Potatoes (peeled and cubed)
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 4 cups Beef or Chicken stock
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 Bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon Ground paprika
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Season the meat (lamb, chicken, or veal) with a pinch of salt and pepper, then add to the pot. Sear the meat on all sides until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the meat from the pot and set aside.

Step 3

In the same pot, add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the sliced carrots and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the tomato paste, ground paprika, and cumin. Cook for 1-2 minutes to develop the flavors.

Step 6

Return the meat to the pot, then add the chopped cabbage and cubed potatoes. Pour in the beef or chicken stock, ensuring that the ingredients are mostly submerged.

Step 7

Add the bay leaves, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

Step 8

Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot with a lid and simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until the meat and vegetables are tender.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 10

Remove the bay leaves before serving.

Step 11

Ladle the stew into bowls, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve hot with crusty bread or your favorite side.
