Preparation of Cocido lebaniego with Thermomix

To start, 12 hours before starting to make our Lebaniego stew, we will soak the Lebaniego chickpeas and the cured meats, the ear, the ham bone and the cecina with a little salt.
Firstly, we put the basket with the ham bone, the cecina, the white bacon, the rib, the knuckle and the ear in our Thermomix bowl.
Next, fill the Thermomix bowl with water up to 1 centimeter less than the edge of the basket and add a teaspoon of salt and program
65 minutes / 100º C / speed 1
Finally, once the previous time is over, wrap each chorizo in aluminum foil and place it in the varoma container together with the chickpeas and program again
45 minutes / Varoma temperature / speed 1
Remove the Varoma container and reserve
We use the notch of the spatula to remove the basket and not burn ourselves
strain the broth from our Thermomix bowl and reserve
In a bowl, place the cecina, the white bacon, the rib, the knuckle, the ear and 2 chorizos cut into pieces (we reserve another one together with a piece of the bacon) and reserve
how to make cabbage
add a good splash of virgin olive oil and 2 garlic peeled into pieces and program
3 seconds / speed 8
Add the cabbage in pieces and program
6 seconds / speed 7
when finished we program
12 minutes / 100º C / speed 1
We put the cabbage in the reserved source together with cecina, rib, bacon, sausages etc…
Now we only have the filling and the noodles
let’s do the filling now
which is nothing more than balls as if they were large croquettes made with bread
In a bowl, put the breadcrumbs into small pieces, together with the milk, 1 egg, 1 chorizo and a piece of bacon that we had reserved in very small pieces, a little parsley and salt and a pinch of baking soda
We knead everything by hand and a moist dough will be formed by the milk, we will make balls with the hand about twice the size of a croquette
and we will fry them with plenty of oil, when we take it out we put it on top of kitchen blotting paper to remove the excess oil
for the noodles
We put the reserved broth in our thermomix and we add the noodles and we put the fried balls of the filling to cook with the noodles so we program
10 minutes / 120º C / reverse rotation / spoon speed
our lebaniego stew is ready, a forceful dish to pay homage
