Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make stewed cabbage with minced meat and rice in a frying pan? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. Minced meat can be chosen from any type of meat. It can be pork, beef, chicken or mixed minced meat. Take long-grain steamed rice — it remains crumbly when cooked and is less overcooked. The proportions of rice, cabbage and minced meat can be slightly changed to suit your taste.

Peel the onions and carrots and rinse them in running water to remove any dirt. Finely chop the onion and grate the carrots on a coarse grater.

Step 3
Pour a little vegetable oil into a hot frying pan and fry the onions and carrots for 3-4 minutes over low heat.

Add cabbage to the frying pan with the minced meat. Stir, cover and leave for 2-3 minutes. During this time, the cabbage will begin to become softer and lose its volume.

To taste, add pressed garlic, salt and spices, such as ground pepper and dried basil or oregano. Mix everything and cover with a lid. Cook over low heat for 20-25 minutes. During this time, the rice will absorb all the water and become soft. Taste the rice — add a little water if necessary.
