Cabbage Leaf Preparation

  1. Clean the head of a cabbage. Gently pull off about 12 to 15 of the largest leaves of cabbage.
  2. Drop the cabbage leaves into a large pot of boiling salted water.
  3. Cook the cabbage for 3 minutes to blanch it. Blanching it will make it tender and pliable.

  2. In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, onion, green pepper, rice, crackers, salt, pepper, egg, and 1/4 of the tomato sauce.

Cabbage Rolls Preparation

  1. Spoon the filling mixture into the blanched cabbage leaves, roll the leaves up, and place them in a deep baking pan.
  2. Pour the remaining sauce over the rolls.
  3. Sprinkle sugar on top.
  4. Bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees.

  • 1/2 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes 
  • 1/4 teaspoon oregano 
  • 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
