Although these dishes are very similar, I'm sharing the Catalan version, called Escudella. If you want to make half the servings, you can use half the ingredients.

Steps

4 hours

1

Boil the meats (except the sausages) for 2 hours.
2

Skim off any foam that forms. As it boils, add salt to taste.
3

Meanwhile, make the meatballs: In a bowl, mix the ground meats with the egg, minced garlic (and parsley if you like), and the 3 tablespoons of breadcrumbs.
4

After 2 hours, leave the chicken in the pot and remove the other meats. At this point, add the vegetables except for the potatoes. Let simmer for about 1 more hour. If the water level gets low, add more boiling water as needed.
5

20 minutes before serving, add the meatballs and potatoes separately. Reserve some broth to cook the pasta in a separate pot (you can use galets, rice, or noodles).
6

A few minutes before serving, add the chickpeas.
7

Serve the soup with the pasta, and serve the meats and vegetables separately on another platter.
