In a large clean pot, place the bones and add the water (7 cups) and all vegetables Simmer it on low heat for 90 minutes, covered.

While the bone broth is cooking, parboil the potatoes in a separate pot, drain and set aside.

Par boil the cabbage leaves for 1-2 minutes. Drain and cut into strips. After about 90 minutes, sieve the broth into a bowl. Keep the bones and discard any boiled spices/vegetables. 

Transfer the broth into a clean pot then add back the pork bones, potatoes, cabbage leaves, and the seasoning base into the pot. Boil over medium-high heat until the potatoes cook completely (10 to 15 mins).
