Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 4h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 lb ground pork
1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 lb ground bacon
15 ounces sauerkraut
1/2 cup rice
2 cups diced onions
1 teaspoon paprika
2 cups tomato juice, depending on taste (or more)
10 -20 peppercorns
2 -4 bay leaves
1 cup oil
1 sprig fresh dill

Steps:

  • Fry onions in oil with paprika. Add washed rice. Then add meat but don't cook it just mix it with the hot onions and rice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Let rest while preparing the cabbage.
  • In the meantime boil the cabbage. Do not overcook. Then rinse with cold water.
  • For larger sheets remove ribs. Place first layer of sauerkraut in pot then form the cabbage rolls like so:
  • Cabbage leaf sits in the palm, place a teaspoon (or more depending on how big your leaf is) of.
  • cabbage mixture and tuck the ends then roll like a tortilla. After you.
  • wrap stuffed cabbage arrange in pan, side by side. Over the first.
  • layer of rolls sprinkle more sauerkraut, sprinkle a few peppercorns, 2 bay leaves, and a sprig of fresh dill. Then arrange another layer, and repeat. Add tomato juice over all the rolls and make sure it is well covered.
  • I make them in the crock pot. You can make them in a roman clay dish in the oven too. Or you can make in a stockpot on the stove. All of these at low heat for 4-6 hours.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sarmale fell apart when I tried to roll them. I think I might have used too much filling.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I would prefer a simpler recipe with fewer ingredients.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sarmale didn't turn out as good as I expected. I think I might have overcooked them.

The cabbage leaves were a bit tough. I would blanch them for a few minutes before rolling them.

These sarmale were a bit bland for my taste. I would add more salt and pepper next time.

I've made sarmale many times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The cabbage leaves were perfectly cooked and the filling was flavorful and moist. I will definitely be using this recipe again.
