Spanish Garlic Cabbage Soup | Packed with Goodness & EASY to Make
Author Albert Bevia @ Spain on a Fork, February 2, 2026

This Spanish garlic cabbage soup, known as sopa de repollo or sopa de col, is what healthy comfort food is all about. It’s filled with flavors, easy to make, and done in a little over 40 minutes using just one pot. Serve it next to a crunchy baguette and a bottle of Spanish wine for a heartwarming meal.
Heat a stockpot with a medium heat and add in the olive oil
After a couple of minutes, add in the chopped onion, garlic, celery, and carrots, mix together and sautΓ© for 4 to 5 minutes, then add in the white wine vinegar, paprika, cumin, crushed red pepper, and season with salt & pepper, mix together, then add in the jarred white beans (drained) and vegetable broth, raise to a high heat, and give it a mix
In the meantime, remove 2 to 3 of the outer leaves from a head of cabbage, then cut it into 4 evenly sized pieces (I only used half of the head for this recipe; the size of the head I used was 1 kg / 2.20 lbs.), cut off the root, and then cut the cabbage into slices that are 1 cm thick (a little over 1/4 inch), then add the sliced cabbage into a colander and rinse under water
Once the broth comes to a boil, gently add in the sliced cabbage, mix together until well mixed, then place a lid on the stockpot and lower to a low heat, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the cabbage is just tender
Transfer into shallow bowls and garnish with chopped chives, enjoy!

Each serving provides 595 kcal, 24g protein, 58.5g carbohydrates (of which 9g sugars), 25g fat (of which 9g saturates), 5.5g fibre and 1.3g salt.
Squeeze the sausage meat out of the skins into a large non-stick frying pan. Add the oil and onion and cook over a medium heat for 10 minutes, or until lightly browned. Use two wooden spoons to break up the sausage meat into small mince-like pieces as it cooks. Add the chilli flakes and cook for 1 minute more, stirring.
Add the tomatoes, tomato purΓ©e, red wine (or water) and oregano. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 8–10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened, stirring regularly.
Fill a large saucepan with water and bring to the boil. Add the pasta to the water and cook for 7–9 minutes (or according to the pack instructions) until tender, stirring occasionally to separate the strands.
Drain the cooked pasta in a colander and return to the saucepan. Tip the spicy sausage sauce into the same pan and toss well together. Serve topped with grated Parmesan and scattered with torn basil leaves.
