Ingredients:  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 head Cabbage large
  • 1 lb Ground Beef
  • 1 cup Cooked Rice
  • 1 Onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 2 cups Tomato Sauce
  • 1 cup Beef Broth

Instructions: 

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • 2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Carefully remove the core from the cabbage and place the whole head in the boiling water. Cook for a few minutes until the outer leaves are tender. Remove the leaves and set aside. Repeat until all large leaves are removed.
  • 3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, cooked rice, chopped onion, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • 4. Place a heaping tablespoon of the meat mixture in the center of each cabbage leaf. Fold in the sides and roll up tightly.
  • 5. In a large baking dish, spread a thin layer of tomato sauce. Place the cabbage rolls seam-side down in the dish. Pour the remaining tomato sauce and beef broth over the rolls.
  • 6. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 1.5 hours, or until the cabbage is tender and the meat is cooked through.
  • 7. Serve hot, with additional sauce spooned over the top.

Notes:

For a vegetarian version, substitute the ground beef with a mixture of mushrooms and lentils.
