Kosher Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
Stuffed cabbage rolls are a classic comfort food in many cultures, and this kosher version is sure to become a favorite in your home. Filled with a savory mixture of ground beef, rice, and aromatic spices, these cabbage rolls are simmered in a flavorful tomato sauce until tender and delicious.
Ingredients
- 1 large head of cabbage
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup cooked rice
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 (15 oz) can tomato sauce
- 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Carefully remove the core from the cabbage and place the whole head in the boiling water. Cook for 3-4 minutes, then carefully remove the cabbage and let it cool. Gently peel off the leaves, trying to keep them whole, and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, cooked rice, onion, garlic, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Place a spoonful of the beef mixture onto each cabbage leaf, then fold the sides in and roll up the leaf to encase the filling.
- In a large pot, combine the tomato sauce and diced tomatoes. Place the cabbage rolls seam side down in the pot. Cover and simmer over low heat for 1 hour, or until the cabbage is tender and the filling is cooked through.
- Serve the cabbage rolls hot, spooning some of the tomato sauce over the top.
