Their advice: Use small, new cabbages as they will be more tender, easier to roll & cook better. Cabbage rolls are a favorite comfort food from Eastern Europe and are often reserved for special occasions or big family dinners. Instead of boiling the cabbage, there's an easy shortcut to soften the leaves if you plan ahead.
Instructions to make Cabbage Rolls:
- Core out cabbage, carefully separate leaves. Blanch 4-5 leaves at a time. About 5 minutes. Once you get your 24 leaves, boil the remaining heads of cabbage for 5 minutes. Roughly chop and set aside.
- Mix in all ingredients besides crushed and fire-roasted diced tomatoes. In a separate bowl, mix water and crushed tomatoes together.
- Take 2 9x13 pans, lightly coat bottom of pans with the crushed tomato mixture.
- Place cabbage leaf with steam down towards you. Place 3/4 cup meat mixture onto the leaf. Form into a 2x4 inch loaf. Roll cabbage like a burrito. Place in pan. Repeat 24 times. (12 per pan) Sprinkle the remaining cabbage on top.
- Pour the rest of the tomato mixture on top of the cabbage rolls. Pour on top 1 can of the fire-roasted diced tomatoes per pan.
- Covered with foil. Cook cabbage rolls at 350 degrees for 90 minutes. Enjoy!
The night before you plan to make the cabbage rolls, put the whole head of cabbage in the freezer.. In a large deep skillet (or large pot) over medium heat, heat oil. Cabbage rolls can vary depending on the origin, the Polish version usually contains meat and rice while the Ukrainian version generally contains only rice. I use a combination of beef & pork for the best flavor but you can use any type of ground meat for these easy cabbage rolls. While the tomato soup may not be typical, it softens & sweetens.
