Ingredients

How to make it

  • Remove about 15 large leaves from the cabbage; cut off very thick part of each leaf.
  • Pour boiling water over the cabbage to wilt the leaves.
  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Combine hamburger (ground chuck) with the rice, chopped onion, eggs, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Place a mound of meat mixture in cupped part of each softened cabbage leaf.
  • Fold over sides of cabbage leaf; roll up, like a burrito.
  • In bottom of a cake pan oven, place a few of the remaining leaves. Arrange layers of cabbage rolls, seam side down, in a cake pan or large casserole.
  • Pour on tomato sauce, tomatoes, brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Bring to a boil on stove top.
  • Bake, covered, for 1 hour.
  • **TUILELAITH"S NOTE: Its like meatloaf wrapped in cabbage with spaghetti sauce poured over it. The chopped tomatoes are my additive. I love tomatoes.... My Mom would use a blender and blend up our garden fresh tomatoes to make the sauce. It was like heaven.

    Yes indeedy. Try raisins and a splash of red wine vinegar in the tomato sauce.
