My fiance's mother used to make these, so I gave it a go and it was a winner with him and his brother. A big hit at family get togethers. this receipe makes approx 36 rolls - i have marked it as 12 servings if each person eats 3, my guys will have 4 - 6 each though. Good luck! Ingredients:
2 heads cabbage, boiled until leaves are soft |
2 lbs ground beef |
1 egg |
1 cup chopped onion |
2 minced garlic cloves |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 cups cooked white rice |
1 1/4 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
2 (28 ounce) cans tomato sauce |
Directions:
1. Separate the cabbage leaves once the heads are cool - remove hard spine.
2. Saute garlic and onions until carmelized - set aside to cool.
3. Mix ground beef, onion & garlic, egg, white rice and salt and pepper in large bowl.
4. In a large casserole dish spread a thin layer of tomato sauce.
5. Place about 1/4 cup of beef mixture and place in the cabbage leaf, roll up like you would an egg roll so that the mixture does not fall out.
6. place each roll in pan, stacking if necessary.
7. cover with remaining tomato sauce.
8. Bake in 300 degree oven for 1 hour 45 minutes or until beef is done and leaves are soft.
9. serve warm/hot with additional sauce over top.
