Stuffed Cabbage Leaves
- 1 head cabbage or savory cabbage
- meat or rice stuffing
- 1 Tbsp. cornstarch powder
- salt
- 3 oz. (85 g) fat or bacon fat
- 1/2 to 1 pt. water
- leftover gravy
- 1 Tbsp. cold water
- Remove the leaves from the stalk of the cabbage, then pare down the ribs so that the leaves are fairly flat.
- Put the leaves into boiling salted water and cook until half done.
- Lay two or three large leaves together, spread with stuffing and roll up. Tie them with thread (previously boiled) or secure with skewers. Heat the fat or the diced bacon; put in the cabbage rolls and brown slightly on all sides.
- Add water as required and a little gravy, if available.
- Thicken the cooking liquid with cornstarch powder, blended with the water; season to taste and poured over the cabbage rolls.
- Cooking time: about 45 minutes.
