Directions
Put the meat, water, salt and washed pearl barley into a large saucepan.
Bring to a boil very slowly and skim.
Dice the vegetables and wash and shred the cabbage and add to the pan.
Bring the soup back to a boil again and simmer very gently until the meat is cooked and the peas are tender - about two hours.
Add parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
