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.
- Enjoy!
