Easy Cabbage Rolls image

I'm revising the introduction to this recipe based on a discussion with 8 Polish "senior" ladies at the General Sikorski Hall in Oshawa, Ontario who were making cabbage rolls for a weekend banquet. Their advice: Use small, new cabbages as they will be more tender, easier to roll & cook better. Purchase your cabbage in advance, boil it for about 5 minutes, put into the freezer, core and boil again just before you follow this recipe. I use any leftover cabbage in my recipe #50951 for "Polish Cabbage Casserole"!

Time 1h30m

Yield 12 cabbage rolls (approx)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium cabbage
1 lb ground beef
2 teaspoons chopped onions
1 teaspoon salt
1 beaten egg
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup cooked rice
1 (14 ounce) can tomatoes
1 (14 ounce) can V8 vegetable juice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Prepare the cabbage according to the recipe description.
  • Combine ingredients for filling.
  • Place some of this mixture (about 1 1/2 tbsps) on each cabbage leaf & fold "envelope" fashion. If the leaf is tough, it will be easier to do this if you make a V shaped incision & remove a part of the coarser spine.
  • You may find it easier to roll the cabbage around the filling and just "tuck" the ends into the roll with your fingers - whatever works best for you!
  • Lay flap side down in a heavy Dutch oven.
  • Combine sauce ingredients - use tomato juice if you don't like V8 - or you may add 1 cup of chicken broth to lessen the tomato flavour; pour over cabbage rolls.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for about an hour. Serve with a dollop of sour cream.
