Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Remove the core from the cabbage. Place the whole cabbage, stem side down, in the boiling water for 5 minutes. Very carefully turn the cabbage, stem side up. Remove the cabbage and allow to drain until cool enough to handle.
Step 2
Carefully loosen each leaf and release it from the head. Place the leave on a chopping board.
Step 3
Mix well all the ingredients with pork and chopped cabbage. Turn the mixture into 6-8 balls.
Step 4
Use the leaf to roll the pork mix into a saussage shape.
Step 5
In a pot large enough to hold the wrapped cabbage, heat the oil. Sauté the carrots, onion and garlic until softened, 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, bay leaf, wine, stock, salt and pepper. Carefully lower the cabbage into the stock.
Step 6
Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer, covered, 40 minutes. Very carefully turn the wrapped cabbage over. Cook 30 minutes more.
Step 7
Remove the cabbage rolls and serve them with rice or eat on its own.
