Ingredients
Cabbage Rolls
- 1/2 lb white rice
- 2 large carrots grated
- 2 medium onions diced
- 1 lb ground meat chicken and beef is a great combo
- 1 tbsp salt adjust to taste
- 1 tsp pepper adjust to taste
- 1 large cabbage head
- 3 tbsp olive oil
Cabbage Rolls Sauce
- 1 large onion cut in half rings
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup tomato sauce
Instructions
- Cook the rice in a pot of salted water. Sauté the grated carrots and diced onions with olive oil. Allow the rice, carrots, and onions to cool.
- In a large bowl, mix together the ground meat, rice, carrots, onions, salt, and pepper.
- Bring 1 gallon of water to a boil in a large deep pot, then add the whole cabbage head. Boil it for 2-3 minutes, then remove it and peel off the cabbage leaves until they become too small. Try to keep the leaves from breaking. Allow the leaves to cool.
- Cut out the hard part of the cabbage leaves by slicing each piece in half and removing the middle spine.
- Hold a cabbage leaf in the palm of your hand, add a heaping spoonful of the filling to the center, and roll the cabbage leaf up into a cone shape.
- Poke the top of the roll down into the filling. Repeat until all the cabbage leaves are used up.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Place the cabbage rolls into a ceramic pot in layers, spaced tightly together.
- To make the sauce, heat a skillet on medium-high heat with a bit of oil, then add the onion rings and sauté until they are golden brown. Add the sour cream and tomato sauce to the pan and mix to combine.
- Pour the sauce over the cabbage rolls, then bake them for 45 minutes.
- Serve the cabbage rolls warm with a dollop of sour cream and fresh herbs. Enjoy!
