Lentils cook faster and are often cheaper than dried chickpeas.

Soak 400 grams of chickpeas in water overnight.

Drain and rinse the chickpeas.

In an 8-liter pot, add soaked chickpeas and 3 liters of water.

Add fresh pancetta, beef shank, pork ribs, and ham scraps to the pot.

Add bones for flavor: spine bones, knee bones, and a piece of leg bone with marrow.

Add a piece of salty bacon to the pot.

Bring to medium heat and cook for 1 hour, skimming off any foam that forms.

After an hour, add 1 chicken thigh, 2 peeled carrots, and 2 chorizos.

Add enough hot water to cover the meat completely.

Do not stir the mixture to avoid breaking the chickpeas.

Cook for another hour.

After 2 hours and 15 minutes, add potatoes to the pot.

Cook the potatoes until tender, about 25 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the cabbage by cutting 1/4 of it into julienne strips and boiling it in salted water for 1 hour.

In a separate pan, heat olive oil and sauté 2 minced garlic cloves and chopped onion until translucent.

Add 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika and stir for a minute, then add a ladle of broth from the cocido to the cabbage to enhance flavor.

After 25 minutes, add the blood sausage to the pot and cook for an additional 15 minutes.

Remove all ingredients from the pot and serve.
