👨🍳 निर्देश
- 1
Prepare the meats: In a very large pot or Dutch oven, cover the beef brisket with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and the bay leaves. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat, then reduce heat to a simmer. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface. Cover and simmer gently for about 1.5 hours, or until the beef is beginning to tenderize.
⏱️ 1 hour 30 minutes - 2
Add the pork ribs and chicken to the pot with the beef. If using smoked pork ear/snout or pork belly, add them now as well. Ensure all meats are submerged. Continue to simmer, covered, for another 1 hour. The goal is to cook the meats until they are tender but not falling apart.
⏱️ 1 hour - 3
Add the sausages and the soaked (or canned) chickpeas to the pot. Continue to simmer for another 30 minutes, or until the sausages are cooked through and the chickpeas are tender. Taste the broth and adjust seasoning with salt and black peppercorns if needed.
⏱️ 30 minutes - 4
Prepare the vegetables: About 30 minutes before the meats are finished cooking, add the cabbage quarters, carrots, potatoes, and turnips to the pot. Ensure they are mostly submerged in the broth. Continue to simmer until the vegetables are tender but still hold their shape, approximately 30 minutes.
⏱️ 30 minutes - 5
Assemble and serve: Carefully remove all the meats and vegetables from the pot using a slotted spoon or spider strainer. Arrange them artfully on a large, deep serving platter. Discard the bay leaves. Serve immediately, with the flavorful broth offered separately in a tureen for guests to ladle over their portions or to be used for cooking rice.
