Soup

Ingredients:
1 garlic, minced
2 medium-size onions, chopped
1 6-inch Chorizo Bilbao, sliced diagonally with 1/8-inch thickness
1 carrot, ¼-inch cubed
1 potato, ¼-inch cubed
½ cup garbanzos (from the can), skins removed
patis (fish sauce), to taste
1 cup cabbage, shredded
1 250-gram pack sotanghon
 
Procedure:
In a saucepan, sauté the onion and garlic, taking care not to burn the garlic. Once the onion turns translucent, add the gizzard, chorizo, and shredded chicken. Mix in the carrot, potato, and garbanzos.
Stir for five minutes. Add the achuete water and season with patis and pepper. Add the broth slowly, one cup at a time. Once the soup starts to boil, lower the heat and add the cabbage and sotanghon. Simmer for 15 minutes and serve in small soup bowls.
