Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make cabbage rolls in the oven? Prepare your ingredients. I have savoy cabbage, but you can use white cabbage — this is what is used in the classic recipe. You can make the minced meat yourself or buy it ready-made in the store. Any minced meat will do. Peel the onions, carrots and cabbage, wash and dry.

Step 2

Step 2
Grind the peeled onions in a blender or chop finely. Rinse the rice in running water, then boil it in salted water. Place the rice in a sieve. In a bowl, combine onion, rice, minced meat, spices, salt to taste and mix everything well.

Step 3

Step 3
I had a not very dense head of cabbage, I took it apart into leaves and blanched them in boiling water. If the head of cabbage is dense, then lower it into boiling salted water, after cutting out the stalk. Remove the cabbage leaves as they soften. Let the leaves cool.
