Onions, carrots and 200 g of pork cut into approximately the same small cubes. Salt. Fry in a pan in vegetable oil, 2-3 minutes.
Wash the peas 4 times. Add to vegetables and simmer for another 10 minutes.
Pour in 1.2 liters of drinking hot water, add bay leaves and cook on low heat for 3 hours.
Before serving, cut the remaining pork into medium pieces and fry in a dry frying pan. Serve with soup.
