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.
