Boil the pearl barley in a separate pan for approximately 30-40 minutes.
In a large stew pan, fry off the onion until lightly browned, adding in each of the seasonings.

Add the remaining vegetables and steam for a further 5 minutes.
Add the vegetable stock and tinned tomatoes, bringing the whole mix to the boil.
Simmer for another 30 minutes, adding the chickpeas and kale after around 20 minutes.
Stir in the pearl barley and stir thoroughly.
