2 tablespoon Olive oil
2 each Garlic cloves, chopped
1 each Jalapeno chile, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon Cumin powder
1/2 teaspoon Hungarian paprika

4 oz Pearl barley

Recipe
Preparation
Heat oil in a big soup pot. When hot, put in the garlic & stir
quickly. Add the jalapeno, quickly followed by the cumin & paprika.
Cook for a few moments, stirring enough to prevent it sticking. Add
the tomatoes & barley & quickly stir. Let cook very gently until the
tomatoes begin to break down. Stir occasionally. Add the stock,
bring to a boil & then reduce to a simmer. Simmer, covered for about
10 minutes.
Add the peas, beans & cabbage. Raise heat to return the soup to a
boil & then lower heat again & continue to simmer until the barley is
cooked & tender. Season with salt & lots of black pepper. Add a
little more stock if necessary. Cook for a few moments longer & then
serve.
NOTE: This soup may benefit from a splash of lemon or lime juice. You
could sprinkle over some parsley or coriander as well.
