Piggy Soup Recipe

Piggy soup is a hearty cabbage-and-pork comfort soup often made with ground pork, rice, tomato broth, and simple vegetables. It appears as a regional home-style dish with flexible variations, commonly featuring cabbage, onion, tomato, broth, and seasoned meat.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground pork
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 small head cabbage, shredded
• 2 carrots, diced
• 1 can crushed tomatoes
• 4 cups broth or water
• 1 cup cooked rice
• 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika, optional
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar, optional

Directions

1. Heat the oil in a large pot and cook the onion until soft, then add garlic and ground pork, breaking the meat up as it browns.
2. Stir in the cabbage, carrots, tomatoes, broth, salt, pepper, and paprika if using.
3. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the cabbage is tender and the flavors blend, about 25 to 30 minutes.
4. Stir in the cooked rice and simmer 5 minutes more to thicken the soup slightly.
5. Taste and adjust seasoning before serving hot.
