Bacon broth

Description

The recipe won't take much time. Clean the bacon and place it in a large pot with water, enough to cover it. Bring to a boil and remove the foam that forms. Add barley and lentils, bring to a boil and simmer for about 25 minutes. Add onion, carrot, parsnip, pepper to taste, thyme, and a sprig of parsley. Bring to a boil again, reduce the heat, and simmer for half an hour. Add potatoes and cabbage, bring to a boil once more, and continue simmering until the vegetables become tender. By this time, the barley and lentils should be soft, and the bacon should be ready. If not, simmer a bit longer. Five minutes before the broth is done, add sliced leek and chopped parsley. Instead of bacon, you can also use another type of meat.
