Wstęp:
Cabbage rolls, or “gołąbki” in Polish, are a beloved traditional dish that has been passed down through generations. This recipe, inspired by my grandmother’s kitchen, is filled with tender cabbage leaves wrapped around a savory filling of ground meat, rice, and seasoning, then simmered in a delicious tomato sauce. It’s the perfect comfort food for any occasion, with rich flavors and a warm, hearty texture.
Składniki:
1 medium head of cabbage
500 g ground pork or beef (or a mix of both)
1 cup cooked rice
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 egg
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
1 can (400 g) tomato puree
1 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp vegetable oil
2 cups beef broth (or water)
Fresh dill or parsley for garnish
Instrukcje:
Prepare the cabbage: Remove the core of the cabbage and carefully separate the leaves. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Blanch the cabbage leaves for 2-3 minutes until softened. Set aside to cool.
Make the filling: In a bowl, mix together the ground meat, cooked rice, chopped onion, egg, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Assemble the rolls: Take each cabbage leaf and trim the thick vein from the center. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of the leaf and roll it tightly, folding in the sides as you go.
