Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake cabbage with meat in the oven? A very simple, quick and affordable dish. To begin, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. You can take any meat: pork, beef, lamb, as well as chicken or turkey. Also choose a part of the carcass according to your taste. I have boneless pork shoulder. Tomato juice in this recipe can be replaced with crushed tomatoes in their own juice or tomato paste diluted with water.

Step 2

Step 2
Remove the top damaged leaves from the cabbage and remove the stalk. Shred the cabbage. To make the dish more filling, you can add diced potatoes to the cabbage.

Step 3

Step 3
Wash the pork and dry it. Cut into medium pieces.

Step 4

Step 4
Place the cabbage in a baking dish (I have a 27 cm diameter) and smooth it out. There is no need to lubricate the mold with anything — a lot of juice will be released from the meat and cabbage, which will prevent the ingredients from sticking to the mold.

Step 5

Step 5
Place pork on cabbage. Sprinkle salt, pepper and dry garlic on top. You can also add your own spices to taste.

Step 6

Step 6
Pour room temperature tomato juice over the cabbage and meat. Place bay leaves on top.

Step 7

Step 7
Cover the pan with foil and place in an oven preheated to 180ºC for 1-1.5 hours. The exact baking time depends on the type and size of the meat pieces, the hardness of the cabbage itself and, of course, on the oven.

Step 8

Step 8
Sprinkle the finished cabbage with meat with chopped fresh herbs and serve. Bon appetit!
