Categories     Dinner

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
28 oz crushed tomato, 1 can
1 tablespoon paprika
1 ½ teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
1 lb ground beef
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons dried oregano
½ cup white rice, uncooked medium grain
1 green cabbage, core removed
sour cream, for serving
fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a medium pan over medium heat, heat the olive oil until shimmering, then cook the garlic until fragrant, for 1-2 minutes.
  • Stir in the crushed tomato, paprika, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, chili powder, cumin, oregano, rice, and 1 cup (260 G) of tomato sauce. Mix until combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the cabbage, cut side down. Cover with a lid, reduce the heat to medium, and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) for 45 minutes.
  • Transfer the cabbage to a cutting board, cut side up, and let cool until it reaches room temperature.
  • Peel off a layer of the cabbage. With the stem facing upwards, use a paring knife to trim the thicker stem, which will make the leaf easier to roll. With the stem side pointed towards you, place a few tablespoons of filling at the base of the leaf.
  • Roll upwards so the filling is covered by a single layer of the cabbage. Fold both sides in, then roll all the way up.
  • Place the cabbage roll seam side down in a 9x13-inch (23x33 -cm) baking dish and repeat with the remaining filling.
  • Spoon the remaining tomato sauce over the cabbage rolls.
  • Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 45 minutes.

This is a quick and easy main dish. My kids don't even like cabbage, but they love this. I usually try to serve it with green beans, new potatoes, corn, and a pan of corn bread. They eat over half the pan every time. Also, the longer it stands the better it tastes.

Tips:

  • Selecting the right cabbage: Choose a large, firm cabbage with tightly packed leaves to ensure it can hold the filling well.
  • Preparing the cabbage: Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage and cut out the core. Blanch the cabbage leaves in boiling water for a few minutes to soften them.
  • Cooking the filling: Brown the ground beef and sausage in a large skillet. Add chopped onion, garlic, and cook until softened. Stir in cooked rice, chopped walnuts, spices, and herbs.
  • Stuffing the cabbage leaves: Place a cabbage leaf on a flat surface. Spoon a portion of the filling onto the leaf, leaving enough space around the edges to fold it up. Fold the sides of the leaf over the filling, then roll it up tightly.
  • Baking the cabbage rolls: Place the cabbage rolls in a baking dish, seam side down. Pour the tomato sauce over the rolls and bake in a preheated oven until the cabbage is tender and the sauce is bubbly.
  • Serving suggestions: Serve the cabbage rolls hot with additional tomato sauce, sour cream, or yogurt. You can also sprinkle some chopped parsley or dill on top for garnish.
