Instructions
1
Before cooking, thoroughly rinse the pearl barley under running water and soak it in cold water for at least 4 hours (or overnight), then drain it.
2
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and leek, and sauté for 5 minutes until softened and fragrant.
3
Add chopped garlic, sliced carrot and celeriac to the softened vegetables. Stir for 2 minutes to release their flavors.
4
Pour the drained pearl barley into the pot, add the whole Carniolan sausage (or smoked ribs), along with bay leaves and dried marjoram.
5
Pour hot stock or water over everything, cover the pot, and once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer slowly for 45 minutes.
6
After 45 minutes, remove the Carniolan sausage from the pot, slice it into rounds on a cutting board, and return it to the pot.
7
Add diced potatoes and cooked brown beans to the stew. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
8
Cover the pot again and cook for another 20 to 25 minutes, until the potatoes and barley are completely tender and the stew naturally thickens.
9
Before serving, remove the bay leaves from the stew, stir in freshly chopped parsley, and serve immediately while hot.
