The Ospidillo Cafe Cabbage Roll Sauce image

Most accomplished cooks have their own cabbage roll filling recipe -- this is just a recipe for an especially good sauce to complement your own cabbage rolls. It is tomato-based and the dill really comes through. My wonderful mother-in-law gave me the original recipe and I tweaked it with the wine. It will easily provide enough sauce for 12-15 big cabbage rolls. I love this sauce!

Time 1h10m

Yield 40 ounces of sauce

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
2 (15 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
1 cup merlot
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon dried dill
1 jalapeno pepper, diced
1 large onion, finely chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Sautee the onion in the olive oil in a thick-bottomed pot until tender. Do not drain.
  • Add all other ingredients, cover the pot, and simmer for an hour or so, stirring frequently.
  • NOTE: Sometimes, I use 2 large chopped onions instead of just one.
