Method
Follow each step in order. Ingredient names are highlighted as you go.
- 01
Bring the water to a simmer and blanch the savoy cabbage. Remove the outer leaves as they become pliable and cool them enough to handle.
- 02
Cook the white rice in the water until only partly tender, then drain and cool. Combine it with the ground pork, onion, garlic, egg, salt, and black pepper.
- 03
Trim the thick rib from each cabbage leaf so it folds easily. Place some filling on each leaf, fold in the sides, and roll tightly.
- 04
Stir together the tomato sauce, tomato paste, and meat stock in a baking dish or casserole.
- 05
Arrange the rolls seam-side down in the sauce. Cover and bake at 180°C (350°F) until the cabbage is very tender and the ground pork filling reaches 71°C (160°F).
- 06
Let the rolls rest for a few minutes before serving so they hold their shape neatly in the sauce.
