For traditional Maltese Kawlata: Soak dried beans and chickpeas overnight. In a large pot, add pork hocks with soaked pulses, potatoes, carrots, onions, celery, and cabbage. Cover with water, add tomato paste, and season with salt and pepper. Simmer gently for 2-3 hours until the meat falls off the bone and the broth is rich and flavorful. A beloved Maltese winter comfort dish, traditionally served on cold days.
