How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • Freeze and thaw the cabbage.
  • Cut out the core.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the meat, rice, onion, green pepper and spices.
  • Pour half of the tomato juice into a roasting pan.
  • Peel off a leaf and place a large spoonful of the meat mixture at the stem end.
  • Roll up the leaf, starting at the stem end, folding in the sides as you go.
  • Place the roll into the tomato juice with the edge down. (You can hold them with a toothpick if you wish)
  • Repeat this process until the meat mixture is used up. (The left over cabbage can go in you next batch of vegetable soup)
  • Once your rolls are all in the pan. Pour the remaining juice over top.
  • Bake at 350ºF for ½ hour.
  • Reduce heat to 200ºF and bake for 3 or 4 hours. (Check them periodically and add more tomato juice if necessary)
