1. Remove core from cabbage. Place whole head in a large pot filled with boiling, salted water. Cover and cook 3 minutes, or until softened enough to pull off individual leaves. If the leaves do not pull off easily, return the cabbage to the pot to boil a minute or two more. When the leaves are cool enough, use a paring knife to cut away the thick center stem from each leaf, without cutting all the way through.
2. In a large bowl, add in the ground beef, pork, rice, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, eggs, ketchup, tomato paste, and parsley. Mix gently to combine. Add in 2/3rd of a can of tomato soup (almost 3/4 of a cup) and mix.
3. To stuff the leaves lay down a single large leaf with the cut edge facing you (where the stem was) and place about a 1/2 cup of the meat mixture in the lower third of the leave. If the leaf is huge add more, if smaller add less meat. Fold the sides of the leaf over the meat and roll the cabbage up (like rolling a burrito). Repeat until all of the leaves are stuffed. If you have extra meat just roll it up as meatballs and place it in the baking pan with the stuffed cabbage.
4. Preheat oven to 350F, rack in the center.

Make Baba’s Cabbage Rolls! Downton Abbey Cooks

WebNov 29, 2019 · Pour the sauce over the rolls and top the rolls with leftover cabbage to prevent the top from burning. Bake in a 325F degree oven …

1. Many home cooks turn to Savoy cabbage since the leaves are less tough than regular green cabbage, but you can make allowances with any cabbage as long as it is large enough generate enough leaves for our roll. Alternatively, you can use two smaller cabbages.
2. Mix the cooked rice with pork and spices. Families differ on the amount of meat to put in. Some exclude meat altogether. I like the 50/50 mixture of meat and rice.
3. Thaw the cabbage rolls. If they don't seem flexible enough for rolling, microwave in batches for 5 minutes which should help soften them
4. Use a blender to break down the tomatoes and place them in a small saucepan on medium heat. Add the rest of the ingredients and heat until the sauce comes to a boil.
