Ingredients

• 1 head Green cabbage
• 500 grams Ground beef
• 250 grams Ground pork
• 1 cup Cooked white rice
• 1 medium (finely chopped) Yellow onion
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 cans (10.5 oz each) Condensed cream of mushroom soup
• 2 cups Water
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) Parsley

Directions

Step 1

Core the cabbage and place the whole head in a large pot of boiling water. Cook for 5 minutes until the outer leaves become soft. Remove the cabbage, carefully peel off 10-12 large outer leaves, and set them aside. Repeat if needed to soften additional layers.

Step 2

While the cabbage cools, prepare the filling by combining the ground beef, ground pork, cooked rice, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, salt, black pepper, and paprika in a large mixing bowl. Mix well until evenly combined.

Step 3

Lay a cabbage leaf flat on a cutting board. Place 2-3 tablespoons of the meat mixture at the base of the leaf. Fold the sides over the filling, then roll the leaf from the base to the tip to seal the roll. Repeat with the remaining leaves and filling.

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 5

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Sear the cabbage rolls seam-side down for 1-2 minutes on each side to lock in flavor. Transfer the rolls to a baking dish, arranging them in a single layer.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of mushroom soup, water, and tomato paste until smooth. Pour the sauce evenly over the cabbage rolls in the baking dish.

Step 7

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 75-90 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender and the filling is fully cooked.

Step 8

Remove the dish from the oven, garnish the cabbage rolls with chopped parsley, and serve warm. Enjoy!
