👨🍳 Instrukcje
- 1
Prepare the cabbage: Core the cabbage and place the whole head in a large pot of boiling salted water. Cook for 5-10 minutes, or until the outer leaves are softened and can be peeled away easily. Remove leaves as they loosen, and repeat until you have about 12-15 usable leaves. Trim any thick ribs from the leaves.
⏱️ 10-15 minutes - 2
Cook the rice: Rinse the rice and cook it according to package directions until al dente. Drain well.
⏱️ 15-20 minutes - 3
Make the filling: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, cooked rice, chopped onion, grated carrot, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: Don't overmix, as this can make the filling tough. - 4
Assemble the rolls: Lay a cabbage leaf flat. Place about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the filling near the stem end. Fold the sides of the cabbage leaf over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the stem end.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: If leaves are small, you can overlap two leaves to create a larger one. - 5
Prepare the sauce: In a large, oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute.
⏱️ 6 minutes - 6
Add the diced tomatoes and beef broth to the pot. Bring to a simmer, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning before adding the cabbage rolls. - 7
Arrange the holubtsi: Carefully place the assembled cabbage rolls seam-side down in the pot with the sauce. They should fit snugly but not be too crowded. Add more broth if needed to partially cover the rolls.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: If you have leftover cabbage leaves or filling, you can layer them at the bottom or top. - 8
Simmer and bake: Cover the pot and bring the sauce back to a gentle simmer on the stovetop. Then, transfer the pot to a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes, or until the cabbage is very tender and the filling is cooked through.
⏱️ 1 hour 30 minutes - 9
Serve: Let the holubtsi rest for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh dill, if desired. Serve hot with a dollop of sour cream or a side of mashed potatoes.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: Holubtsi often taste even better the next day.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów
- ✓For a vegetarian version, omit the meat and use a filling of rice, sautéed mushrooms, onions, carrots, and herbs.
- ✓If you don't have a large enough pot for simmering, you can arrange the rolls in a baking dish and pour the sauce over them, then cover tightly with foil and bake.
- ✓Freezing holubtsi is a great option for make-ahead meals. Freeze them in their sauce.
