Description

A comforting dish featuring tender cabbage leaves wrapped around a savory filling of rice, herbs, and spices, all smothered in a rich, creamy mushroom sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large head of green cabbage
  • 1 pound ground beef (or turkey)
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups mushrooms, sliced (cremini or button)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 can (14 oz) crushed tomatoes
  • 1 cup vegetable broth or water

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Carefully peel off 8-10 leaves from the head of cabbage. Blanch them in boiling water for about 2 minutes until softened. Remove and place them in a bowl of cold water.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic in a bit of olive oil until fragrant and soft. Add ground beef (or turkey), and cook until browned. Stir in cooked rice, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
  3. Take a blanched cabbage leaf and place about a tablespoon of the filling at the base of the leaf, fold in the sides, and roll up tightly from the base.
  4. In the same skillet, add sliced mushrooms and sauté until golden. Add crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth, simmering for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream until smooth.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Layer a bit of the mushroom sauce in a baking dish, place the stuffed cabbage rolls seam-side down, and cover generously with the rest of the sauce.
  6. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until bubbly and the rolls are tender.
  7. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
