Irish Bacon And Cabbage Soup

Irish Bacon And Cabbage Soup

This is a wonderfully simple chunky soup. I use good quality Irish back bacon but if you can’t get this, it tastes equally good made with pancetta. The dark green colour of the cabbage alongside the tomatoes gives the soup a beautiful colour.
