Stuffed Cabbage With Spicy Beef Recipes

STUFFED SAVOY CABBAGE WITH BEEF, PORK, AND RICE IN A SPICY TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the tomato sauce: Pulse tomatoes with juice in a food processor until finely chopped. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and red-pepper flakes. Cook, stirring constantly, until onion is tender, about 6 minutes. Add chopped tomatoes and juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly thick, about 20 minutes. Season with salt. Let cool completely.
• Make the stuffed cabbage: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add cabbage head, and cook until outer leaves are just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon. Peel outer layer of leaves, and drain. Return remaining cabbage to water, and repeat until all leaves are cooked and removed. Pat each leaf dry with a kitchen towel. Select 12 large light-green leaves. Reserve remaining leaves for another use.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Using 2 forks, gently stir together beef, pork, rice, onion, parsley, paprika, and 1 tablespoon salt.
• Working with 1 leaf at a time, trim thick part of rib with a paring knife, leaving leaf intact. Arrange about 1/2 cup filling (less for smaller leaves) in center of each leaf. Fold stem end of cabbage over filling. Fold in sides of cabbage. Carefully roll cabbage over to form a package, overlapping ends to seal. Transfer each, seam side down, to a large, shallow baking dish.
• Spread sauce over stuffed cabbage leaves. Cover with parchment-lined foil, and bake until cooked through and cabbage is tender, about 1 hour.

SPICY STUFFED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Prep the cabbage: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, remove 10 to 12 whole outer leaves from the cabbage by cutting them off the core. (Reserve the remaining cabbage for another use.) Add the leaves to the boiling water and blanch until wilted, about 2 minutes. Drain and transfer the leaves to a paper towel-lined baking sheet; set aside.
• Make the sauce: Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 8 minutes. Add the tomatoes, vinegar, salt, and pepper and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the flavors meld, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, make the filling and stuff the cabbage.
• Make the filling: Place all the ingredients except the chicken in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Add the chicken and gently mix it in, making sure not to compact the meat. Divide the mixture into 8 portions (about scant 1/3 cup each), then form each portion into a ball.
• Working with one leaf at a time, place a ball on the center of the leaf. Fold in the sides of the leaf tightly over the filling, completely covering the filling. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet or large plate. Repeat with the remaining leaves, overlapping 2 leaves as needed if they are too small (you will not use all the leaves).
• When the sauce is ready, place the stuffed cabbage seam-side down in single layer in the sauce. Spoon some of the sauce over the top of the stuffed cabbage so that they're covered. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat undisturbed until the rice in the filling is cooked through, about 35 minutes.
• Recipe Notes.
• Make ahead: The sauce can be made and the cabbage stuffed and stored in the refrigerator up to 1 day ahead. Store separately and bring the sauce to a simmer before adding the stuffed cabbage to the pan.
• Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

STUFFED CABBAGE WITH BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Carefully remove 12 cabbage leaves, taking care not to tear them (reserve remaining cabbage for another use). Add the leaves to the boiling water; cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, 8 to 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the leaves to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Let cool until easy to handle, about 5 minutes. Using a knife, trim and discard the thickest part of the main vein from the bottom of each leaf.
• Combine tomato sauce, brown sugar, vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.
• Place ground beef, rice, onion, pepper, 2/3 cup of the tomato sauce mixture and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Using your hands, lightly work the mixture until just combined. Spread 1/2 cup of the remaining tomato sauce mixture in the bottom of a 7-by-11-inch baking dish.
• Arrange 1 cabbage leaf, vein-side down, on a work surface with vein running perpendicular to the edge. Scoop 1/3 cup beef mixture onto the trimmed side of the leaf. Shape the beef mixture into a 2-inch log running parallel to the work surface edge. Fold the outer sides of the leaf over the filling and in toward the center. Roll up the leaf, pressing it tightly around the filling. Place the cabbage roll, seam-side down, on the tomato sauce mixture in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining cabbage leaves and beef mixture.
• Top the cabbage rolls evenly with the remaining tomato sauce mixture. Cover the baking dish with foil. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of a roll registers 160°F, about 1 hour. Garnish with parsley, if desired.
