Ingredient

Food ration :

6 servings

2-3 tbs

medium yellow onion finely chopped

1 can (28 ounce)

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

For the sauce, heat olive oil in a saucepan. Add the onions and cook over medium heat until translucent. Add the tomatoes, brown gravy, brown sugar, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes.

* Step 2

Prepare the 1/2 cup of cooked rice and set aside. For the cabbage, fill a large pot with water (2") and bring to a light boil.

* Step 3

Cut around the cabbage head core and gently remove the outer leaves, yielding about 5-6 leaves per head. [Save the rest of the cabbage for other meals such as soup, corned beef, coleslaw, etc.]

* Step 4

Stack the cabbage leaves, immerse in the boiling water, and cover. After a few minutes, remove the leaves and set aside to cool.

* Step 5

For the beef filling, add the meat, onion, breadcrumbs, cooked rice, and beaten egg in a large bowl. Mix lightly and then season with salt, pepper, and thyme. [Be creative with your spices]

* Step 6

For the rolls, cut off the hard rib (1/2”) from the base of each cabbage leaf. Take a large palm-full of filling - shape it like a sausage, and place it at the bottom of the leaf. Roll the leaf up tucking the sides in as you roll.

* Step 7

Line a medium - large casserole dish with some sauce. Place the rolls seam-side down in the pan. Pour the sauce over the cabbage rolls and cover with foil. [Refrigerate while oven is preheating]

* Step 8

Bake for 50 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Take foil off and bake for another 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes. Serve with mashed potatoes.
