recipe
Middle Eastern spiced meat and rice, rolled into green cabbage leaves then finished in the oven. A recipe adapted from my Syrian mother-in-law.
These cabbage rolls are one of our favorite family meals.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place head of cabbage in boiling water. Remove leaves with tongs as they fall off. In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, melted butter, cooked rice, cumin, allspice, salt and pepper. Divide the meat mixture evenly over the center of each leaf. Fold the bottom edges over the mixture and then fold the sides over and roll tight.
