Cabbage Rolls | Stuffed Cabbage Rolls Recipe
Servings: 12 cabbage rolls
Ingredients
- 12 Green Cabbage Leaves large
- 1 pound Ground Beef
- 1 cup Cooked White Rice
- 2 Garlic minced
- 1 Egg
- 1 tsp Kosher Salt
- 1/2 tsp Ground Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Dried Thyme
- cups Tomato Sauce
- 1 1/2 cups Diced Tomatoes
- 1 cup Beef Broth
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- Parsley chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Remove the core from the cabbage and place it in a pot of boiling water. Carefully peel off the cabbage leaves as they soften. Set aside.
- Filling Mixture. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, cooked rice, chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, salt, black pepper, paprika, and dried thyme. Mix until well combined.
- Tomato Sauce. In a separate bowl, mix together the tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, and beef or vegetable broth.
- Assembling the Rolls. Place a cabbage leaf on a flat surface and add a portion of the filling mixture. Roll the leaf, tucking in the sides, to form a secure roll. Repeat with the remaining leaves and filling.
- Layering in the Pan. In a baking dish, spread a layer of the tomato sauce mixture. Arrange the cabbage rolls on top. Repeat the process, layering sauce and rolls.
- Baking. Drizzle olive oil over the top and cover the baking dish with aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the cabbage rolls are tender.
- Garnish and Serve. Once baked, garnish the rolls with fresh parsley. Serve the Stuffed Cabbage Rolls with additional tomato sauce if desired.
