Directions: |
Directions:Pull off the tough outer leaves from the cabbage and cut out the core with a paring knife. Cook in boiling salted water to cover in a Dutch oven about 5 minutes or until leaves separate easily. Invert cabbage & drain well. Separate individual leaves and dry well.
Combine the meat & the next 9 ingredients in the food processor until well mixed or in a mixmaster for about 10 minutes. Place a heaping tablespoon of filling in the centre of each cabbage leaf, fold in the sides & roll up from the core end. Continue until all the filling is used. You should have a few small leaves left. Shred them.
In a Dutch oven or large (6 quart) pot, place a layer of shredded cabbage, a layer of rolls, a layer of sauce. Repeat until all is used. Cover tightly & cook over low heat for 2 hours. Remove cover and bake for 2 more hours at 275ºF. Correct for seasonings & sweet-sour balance and serve. |

Notes: One of my favourite recipes in this book!! When I make this, I give some to my kids because they love them, but don't often prepare them for themselves.
This recipe can be doubled. Use 2 6 qt. pots. These freeze very well.
