Add onions, tomatoes and 4 cups (1 L) water; cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 1 hour.

Add cabbage, salt and pepper; simmer, covered, for 1 hour.

Remove ribs and bone. Remove meat from ribs; trim off fat and chop meat. Remove marrow from bone. Return meat and marrow to pot.

Stir in lemon juice, tomato paste and sugar; simmer for 20 minutes.
