HOW DO I MAKE MY CABBAGE SOUP?
- Firstly, spray the bottom of a large saucepan / dutch oven with calorie-controlled spray oil. Warm over medium heat and then add the onions, carrots, celery and peppers and saute for 5 – 6 minutes until they have softened. You can add a few tablespoons of water if you find vegetables starting to stick to the bottom of the pan.
- Then add the garlic (& fresh thyme if using) and saute for a further 1 – 2 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato puree and then add the shredded cabbage and stock and mix thoroughly.
- Bring the mixture to a boil then reduce and simmer for 8 – 10 minutes.
- Then add the green beans and simmer for a further 3 – 4 minutes until tender.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
