PETE EVANS PETE EVANS’ CABBAGE AND BACON SOUP Celebrity chef Pete Evans shares a surprisingly delectable soup, that will warm up any winter menu. Now please don’t be put off by the name of this soup. Cabbage soup may not sound like something worth celebrating, but you will be surprised at how comforting, warming and absolutely addictive this is. It really is just like a big warm hug for your body, and the fact that it contains bacon may get it across the line with the rest of the family! Maybe we should rename it ‘OMG bacon soup’? What you’ll need: 2½ tablespoons coconut oil or good-quality animal fat 1 onion, chopped 2 garlic cloves, chopped 250g silverbeet, leafy green part and stems separated, trimmed and chopped 250g green cabbage, shredded 200g rindless bacon ½ teaspoon ground turmeric 6 cups chicken bone broth Sea salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 large handful of flat-leaf parsley leaves How to make it: 1. Melt two tablespoons of oil or fat in a large saucepan over medium heat. 2. Add the onion and cook for five minutes, or until softened. 3. Stir in the garlic, silverbeet stems and cabbage and cook for five minutes, or until softened. 4. Meanwhile, melt the remaining oil or fat in a frying pan over medium/high heat, add the bacon and cook until lightly golden, about four minutes on each side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. 5. Chop the bacon into 2cm pieces and stir into the cooked cabbage mixture, then add the turmeric and broth. 6. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat to low and gently simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes. 7. Stir in the leafy green part of the silverbeet and cook for a further five minutes until wilted. 8. Season with salt and pepper. To finish, stir in the parsley leaves and serve.
