Ingredients
  • 16 medium cabbage leaves
  • boiling water
  • 1 tsp. salt per liter (quart) water
  • 1 pound / 500 g lean ground beef
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 slice of whole wheat bread, finely shredded by hand
  • 1-1/4 tsp. salt
  • 4 tsp. potato starch
  • 1-1/2 cups (3-4 dl) homogenized or full fat milk
  • 1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
  • 2 cups (5 dl) lightly-salted, boiling water
  • Note: Using the boiling water is the original recipe but I prefer to use 2 cups of my favourite tomato juice and I like to place 1/2 a bay leaf in the juice. If you use a bay leaf. remember to remove it after cooking. Now, for a twist and if you can obtain Juniper berries, then they too are a nice addition to the tomato sauce.

Directions
  1. Par-boil the cabbage in lightly salted boiling water until soft, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Drain well.
  3. Cut out the thick stem part.
  4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (160 degrees C).
  5. Mix ground beef with onion, slice of bread, salt and potato starch.
  6. Gradually add milk and season with spices.
  7. I cover this meat mixture with cling wrap and allow it to sit in the refrigerator for a good 1/2 hour.
  8. Place a spoonful of the meat mixture onto each cabbage leaf.
  9. Fold the cabbage leaf over the meat once, then fold both sides in and continue to role the leaf to form a small package.
  10. Place the cabbage rolls seam side down in a greased ovenproof dish.
  11. Gently pour water over the cabbage rolls and place the dish in a water bath.
  12. Back for approximately 35-40 minutes.
  13. Serve with gravy, boiled potatoes and a loaf of fresh bread to soak up any juices.
