Cabbage Rolls (Golabki)
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 large head of cabbage
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup uncooked white rice
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
- 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Carefully remove the core from the cabbage and place the whole head in the boiling water. Cook for about 2 minutes, then carefully remove the outer leaves. Continue this process until you have about 12 large leaves. Set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, uncooked rice, chopped onion, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well.
- Place a small amount of the meat mixture onto each cabbage leaf, then roll up, tucking in the sides to create a neat package.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, brown sugar, and lemon juice.
- Spread a thin layer of the tomato mixture in the bottom of a large baking dish. Place the cabbage rolls seam side down in the dish, then pour the remaining tomato mixture over the top.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 1 hour. Uncover and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender and the meat is fully cooked.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
