Ukrainian Cabbage Rolls image

My parents are Ukrainian and this is a recipe we always made when I was growing up. These cabbage rolls have no meat in them. Sometimes they used salt pork in them, but I didn't care for it.

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 medium head cabbage
1 ½ cups uncooked white rice
2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
1 (46 fluid ounce) can tomato juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 2 quart casserole dish.
  • Steam the whole head of cabbage until it is al dente. Meanwhile, in a saucepan bring 3 cups of water to a boil. Add rice and stir. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Saute onion until translucent; stir into cooked rice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cut the leaves off of the cabbage and cut the larger leaves in half. Spoon 1 tablespoon of rice into a leaf and roll tightly. Place rolls in prepared casserole dish, stacking in layers. Pour tomato juice over the rolls, using enough just to cover.
  • Cover and bake in preheated oven for 2 hours.
