Cooking Steps
  1. In a large Dutch oven, add olive oil and heat over medium-high heat.
  2. Add in the ground beef and cook for 6-8 minutes until browned, then drain any excess fat.
  3. Toss in the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened, then stir in the minced garlic for an additional 30 seconds.
  4. Mix in the chopped cabbage and cook for about 5 minutes until it starts to soften.
  5. Stir in the diced tomatoes (with juices), tomato sauce, beef broth, tomato paste, thyme, paprika, marjoram, salt, and pepper.
  6. Bring to a gentle boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 25-30 minutes.
  7. Uncover and taste the broth! Stir in vinegar and sugar; if you prefer a thicker soup, simmer uncovered for an additional 10 minutes.
  8. Ladle the warm soup into bowls, garnishing each with fresh parsley.
