How To Make stuffed cabbage rolls

  • Step 1
    In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add rice and stir. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Step 2
    Bring a large, wide saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Add cabbage leaves and cook for 2 to 4 minutes or until softened; drain.
  • Step 3
    In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, 1 cup cooked rice, onion, egg, salt and pepper, along with 2 tablespoons of tomato soup. Mix thoroughly.
  • Step 4
    Divide the beef mixture evenly among the cabbage leaves. Roll and secure them with toothpicks or string.
  • Step 5
    Note: 2 ways to cook 1.) In a large skillet over medium heat, place the cabbage rolls and pour the remaining tomato soup over the top. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 40 minutes, stirring and basting with the liquid often. 2.) Place rolls side-by-side in a baking dish. Pour remaining tomato soup over rolls. Bake in 350 degree oven for 1 hour.
  • Step 6
    Optional: Wrap each roll with a strip of bacon or place bacon strips over the rolls, when placed in baking dish, topping with remaining tomato soup.
