Cabbage Strudel Recipes

CABBAGE STRUDEL

Steps:

• Filling: In a saute pan, melt the butter. Heat it to medium high heat and saute the cabbage until tender. Add the salt and sugar and stir to dissolve. Add the raisins and cook a few minutes to reduce and thicken any juices. Stir in the walnuts and spread on a sheet pan to cool.
• Strudel: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Transfer 1 sheet of phyllo to a sheet pan. Using a pastry brush, brush the phyllo with butter. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the sugar and 1/3 of the chopped walnuts. Repeat with the 2 remaining sheets of phyllo. Reserve the remaining melted butter and sugar. Turn the sheet pan so that the phyllo is horizontal to your body. Spoon the cooled cabbage filling 2 inches in from the left hand edge of the phyllo, working from top to bottom, leaving 2 inches bare at the top and bottom. Turn the sheet pan 1/4 turn and roll up the pastry to encase the filling, forming a log. Move the log to the center of the sheet pan and tuck the ends under to keep the filling from oozing out. Brush the surface with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool 10 to 15 minuets on the pan. Using a serrated knife cut carefully into sections and serve warm.

• Top with another sheet of phyllo, and brush again with butter.
• Repeat until all 10 sheets are buttered and stacked.
• Arrange cabbage on dough, at end closest to you, in a thick layer 2 inches deep; spread evenly to edges.

• Arrange cabbage on top sheet, at end closest to you, in a thick layer 2 inches deep. Spread evenly to side edges. With the help of the parchment paper (and rolling as if for sushi in a bamboo roller), roll phyllo starting at the end with the cabbage. As you work, adjust parchment paper so that phyllo is rolled, enclosing cabbage, without the paper. Brush top of roll with butter, place on baking sheet and bake until golden, about 40 minutes. Serve hot or warm.
