Making the Filling
To begin, you will need ground beef as the main protein for the stuffing. You can also use a combination of ground beef and pork for a richer flavor. In a large bowl, mix the ground meat with cooked rice, diced onions, and chopped garlic. The onions and garlic add a savory depth to the filling. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika for a well-balanced taste. Feel free to add other spices like thyme, oregano, or cumin for a unique flavor profile.
Preparing the Cabbage Leaves
The next step is to prepare the cabbage leaves for stuffing. You can use either green or white cabbage, whichever is available. Remove the core and wilt the leaves in boiling water for a few minutes until they are soft and pliable. Place the wilted leaves in a bowl of cold water to stop them from cooking further. This will make it easier to roll the cabbage leaves without tearing.
Rolling the Cabbage Rolls
Once the filling and cabbage leaves are ready, it's time to roll the golubtsi. Place a spoonful of the filling onto the center of a cabbage leaf and fold the sides in, then roll it tightly like a burrito. Place the cabbage rolls seam side down in a large pot or Dutch oven. Repeat the process until all the filling is used up.
Cooking the Cabbage Rolls
Pour tomato sauce or diced tomatoes over the cabbage rolls in the pot. The acidity from the tomatoes will help tenderize the cabbage leaves and add a tangy flavor to the dish. Add beef broth or water to cover the rolls and bring it to a boil. Then, lower the heat and let it simmer for 45 minutes to an hour. The longer it simmers, the more flavorful the cabbage rolls will be.
Serving and Enjoying
When the cabbage rolls are fully cooked, remove them from the pot and place them on a serving dish. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and chopped fresh dill for added creaminess and freshness. These Russian stuffed cabbage rolls are best enjoyed hot and can also be served with a side of mashed potatoes or crusty bread.
With this simple and delicious recipe, you can easily recreate a taste of Russia in your own kitchen. These cabbage rolls are perfect for a cozy family dinner or for impressing guests at a dinner party. Give this recipe a try and experience the comforting flavors of traditional Russian cuisine.
