Answer 4

I can't give you amounts -- BUT tomato sauce, brown sugar, lemon juice, raisins.

Optional: some chopped apple. I have also been told that finely chopped dried apricots adds a nice sweetness and thickens the consistency.

For the cabbage -- make sure to freeze a head of cabbage and let defrost to make the leaves pliable and easy to work with.

For the meat mix ground meat with some raw rice, ketchup and chopped onion.
