Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Steam the rice and cabbage head separately. Set the steamed rice aside. Peel off the cabbage leaves to have individual leaves.

Steps:
- Directions Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Boil cabbage leaves 2 minutes; drain. In large bowl, combine 1 cup cooked rice, egg, milk, onion, ground beef, salt, and pepper. Place about 1/4 cup of meat mixture in center of each cabbage leaf, and roll up, tucking in ends. Place rolls in slow cooker. In a small bowl, mix together tomato sauce, brown sugar, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour over cabbage rolls. Cover, and cook on Low 8 to 9 hours.
Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage: Select a large, firm head of cabbage with tightly packed leaves. The outer leaves should be dark green and free of blemishes.
- Blanch the cabbage leaves: This process softens the leaves and makes them pliable, making it easier to roll them. To blanch the leaves, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Remove the leaves from the cabbage and immerse them in the boiling water for 1-2 minutes, or until they are wilted. Immediately remove the leaves from the boiling water and transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Prepare the filling: While the cabbage leaves are blanching, prepare the filling. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, rice, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly combined.
- Assemble the cabbage rolls: Place a blanched cabbage leaf on a flat surface. Spoon some of the filling onto the leaf, near the bottom edge. Fold the bottom edge of the leaf over the filling, then fold in the sides. Continue rolling the leaf until it is completely enclosed. Repeat with the remaining cabbage leaves and filling.
- Cook the cabbage rolls: Place the cabbage rolls in a large pot or Dutch oven. Pour the tomato sauce over the cabbage rolls, ensuring they are completely covered. Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 hour, or until the cabbage rolls are tender and the filling is cooked through.
Conclusion:
Cabbage rolls are a hearty and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little planning and preparation, they are relatively easy to make and can be a great addition to any meal. Whether you are looking for a traditional comfort food or a new and exciting dish to try, cabbage rolls are sure to please.
