Asian Style Cabbage Rolls image

I saw Huey make something similar this morning, but I'm not paying to join HIS site. He used pork, I want to use turkey, he microwaved his in a little Asian flavoured sort of broth-I prefer to steam mine. I combined his ideas, my ideas and those of a similar recipe I found on the net to come up with these

Time 55m

Yield 8 cabbage rolls

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 large cabbage leaves, whole
200 g ground turkey
1/2 medium carrot, peeled cut into thin match sticks
2 green onions, minced
1/4 cup water chestnut, diced
1/2 cup bean sprouts
1/4 cup shredded snow peas
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
100 g cellophane noodles, soaked in cold water for 1 hour

Steps:

  • Set up a steamer, add enough water to cover the bottom by an inch or so, and bring it to a boil. Separate the 8 cabbage leaves. Steam the leaves for 5 minutes or just until they are pliable. Cool them under cold water and set aside. Trim the thick core from each leaf.
  • Combine the remaining ingredients and mix well.
  • Lay each cabbage leaf out onto a work surface. Divide the filling into eight (around 3 tablespoonsa roll) then lay a portion on each leaf.
  • To roll, fold one end of the cabbage leaf over the filling. Fold in each side then roll into a log shape.
  • Place the cabbage rolls on a plate and chill before cooking. This recipe may be made up to one day ahead to this point.
  • To cook the cabbage rolls, place them in a steamer set over, not in, boiling water. Steam them for 15 minutes to thoroughly cook them. Serve them with a soy dipping sauce.
