- Add the chopped onion to the pot and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until soft, then include the sliced carrot and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Mix in the diced potatoes and chopped cabbage, season with salt and pepper, and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes to slightly soften the vegetables.
- Pour the chicken stock into the pot, add the bay leaf, bring to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until potatoes and cabbage are tender.
