INGREDIENTS

  • Vegetable

    • 🌿 1 medium head cabbage
    • 🧅 1 onion, chopped

  • Grains

    • 🍚 1 ½ cups uncooked white rice

  • Dairy

    • 🧈 2 tablespoons butter

  • Seasoning

    • 🧂 Salt and pepper to taste

  • Liquids

    • 💧 3 cups water
    • 🍅 1 (46 fluid ounce) can tomato juice, or as needed

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish.

2

Fill a large pot with a few inches of water and insert a steamer basket; bring to a boil. Place whole head of cabbage into the steamer basket, cover, and steam until tender, 10 to 12 minutes.

3

Bring 3 cups water to a boil in a saucepan. Stir in rice and reduce the heat. Cover and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.

4

Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir onion into cooked rice and season with salt and pepper to taste.

5

Cut leaves off cabbage and cut any larger leaves in half. Spoon 1 tablespoon rice into each leaf and roll tightly.

6

Stack rolls in layers in the prepared casserole dish. Pour tomato juice over the rolls, using enough just to cover.

7

Cover and bake in the preheated oven for 2 hours.
