Answer 1

Beef Cabbage Rolls:

1 head savoy cabbage (about 1 1/4 lb.)
1 jar (16 oz.) sauerkraut, rinsed, drained, and squeezed dry
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 pound ground lean beef (7 to 10 percent fat)
3/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 large egg white
3/4 cup dried precooked white rice
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/4 cup fine dried bread crumbs
About 1/2 teaspoon salt
About 1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup tomato juice
1 cup fat-skimmed beef broth
Nonfat or low-fat sour cream

1. In a 2 1/2- to 3-inch-deep 12-inch frying pan or 5- to 6-quart pan, bring about 1 inch of water to a boil over high heat.

2. Cut out and discard cabbage core. Carefully separate leaves from head, keeping them whole.

3. Add cabbage to pan, cover, and cook until leaves are wilted, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain water from pan and fill with cold water. Drain again.

4. Cut thickest parts of tough stems from the 8 largest leaves; set leaves aside. Finely chop stems and remaining leaves.

5. In pan, mix chopped cabbage with sauerkraut and paprika; spread flat.

6. In a bowl, mix ground beef, onion, egg white, rice, parsley, bread crumbs, 3 tablespoons water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

7. Mound 1/8 of the meat mixture at stem end of cupped side of each reserved cabbage leaf. Form the meat into a horizontal log 2 1/2 to 3 inches long, fold leaf sides over meat, then roll from stem end to enclose. Set rolls, seams down, on sauerkraut mixture in pan.

8. Mix tomato juice and broth. Pour over cabbage rolls. Cover pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until meat is no longer pink in center of thickest part (cut to test), about 15 minutes.

9. Spoon stuffed cabbage rolls and sauerkraut mixture into shallow rimmed bowls. Add sour cream, salt, and pepper to taste.

Yield: Makes 4 servings

Answer 2

High fat- fry off about 2-3 slices bacon, when bacon gets done, pour out most of the drippings and add about 2 Tablespoons of olive oil. Let bacon cool , crumble and set aside. Slice cabbage really fine, I would use 1/2 head for this in a large skillet and 1/2 a head for something else. If I were feeding more than 2 people I would use more cabbage. Place shredded cabbage in skillet with oil, add 1/4 cup water and salt it. Bring to boil, cover and turn down on low. Stir occaisionally, test for seasonings, I like black pepper on mine. Cook and stir for about 20 minutes. Till it is tender. Top with bacon crumbles. Great with any downhome type of meat. Ham steak, meat loaf, fried chicken. Also, I hope you can make some cornbread to go with it.

Answer 5

Not a heart friendly recipe, but one of my faves none the less. Cook a pound of bacon and toss in the cabbage cut down into chunks. Cook until cabbage cooks down. I like to add a few flakes of crushed red pepper, but if it's for the kids, I'd skip that.

Answer 10

boil chicken thighs or pork shoulder in salted water with lots of black pepper corns. after the meat is cooked let it all cool completely. bring to a boil again, and cut but do not shred the cabbage, and put in the stock after the meat is thoroughly cooked. cook the cabbage until it is tender as you like it. I like it very tender, some people like it crunchy.

Cut the thick membrane off back of each leaf.

While cabbage is cooking saute onion in butter until lightly browned.

Put all the uncooked meat into a large mixing bowl add eggs.
Add the sauted onions.

Next add salt pepper, celery salt, parsley, nutmeg, and worcestershire sauce along with the cooked rice.
Mix thoroughly.

Lay out leaves and depending upon their size, place 2-3 tablespoons of meat mixture on the wider side.

Roll leaf up and over meat, tuck in sides of leaf, and continue to roll to use all leaves and stuffing.

Place rolls, seam down into a greased roasting pan.

Then layer carrots and mushrooms over cabbage.

Mix together the tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, water and brown sugar and pour evenly over all the rolls.

Season with salt and pepper to taste and bay leaves.

Cover roaster and bake 325 degrees for 2- 2&1/2 hours.

Half way through baking check to make sure there's enough liquid; additional water can be added.

To serve, spoon sauce over rolls.

Serve with Mashed potatoes!
