Description

Stuffed Cabbage Rolls are a classic comfort food featuring tender cabbage leaves wrapped around a flavorful filling of ground meat, rice, and spices. Simmered in a rich tomato sauce, these rolls are hearty, satisfying, and perfect for family dinners or special occasions. This dish is popular in many cultures and brings together simple ingredients for a delicious meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ⅔ cup water
  • ⅓ cup uncooked white rice
  • 8 cabbage leaves
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • ¼ cup chopped onion
  • 1 egg, slightly beaten
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed tomato soup, divided
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large, wide saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Add cabbage leaves and cook for 2 to 4 minutes or until softened; drain.
  • Combine ground beef, 1 cup of cooked rice, onion, egg, 2 tablespoons of tomato soup, salt, and pepper in a large bowl; mix thoroughly.
  • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of beef mixture onto each cabbage leaf; bring one end of the cabbage leaf over the mixture, rolling and tucking in the ends to prevent the filling from falling out.
  • Place cabbage rolls in a large skillet over medium heat; pour remaining tomato soup on top. Cover and bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and simmer for about 40 minutes, stirring and basting with the liquid often
