Vegetarian Polish Cabbage Roll Soup
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked rice
- 1 head of cabbage
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 carrot, grated
- 1 can of diced tomatoes
- 6 cups vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup sour cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Prepare the cabbage rolls by carefully removing the leaves from the head of cabbage. Blanch the leaves in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, then remove and set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, mix the cooked rice, chopped onion, minced garlic, grated carrot, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. This will be the filling for the cabbage rolls.
- Place a spoonful of the filling onto each cabbage leaf, then roll them up, tucking in the sides to create a neat roll. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.
- In a large pot, bring the vegetable broth to a simmer. Carefully add the cabbage rolls to the pot, cover, and let them cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender.
- Once the cabbage rolls are cooked, remove them from the pot and set aside. Add the chopped fresh parsley to the broth and adjust the seasoning if needed.
- To serve, ladle the cabbage roll soup into bowls and top each serving with a dollop of sour cream, if desired. Enjoy!
