 TÖLTÖTT KÁPOSZTA (Cabbage Rolls)

5/23/2013

Comments

 
A lot of people make cabbage rolls with meat, but I don't. My mother made a few different forms of it when I was a child. My favorite part about this awesome Hungarian Dish is that it is honestly very inexpensive and very cheap to make. The Hungarian people call this amazing dish TÖLTÖTT KÁPOSZTA- but Americans call it Cabbage Rolls, Stuffed Cabbage, or Pigs in a blanket. My husband is coming home from Florida this weekend, he is stationed there in the Navy. His dad's side of the family is Hungarian and loves authentic food like this. Coincidentally, my mother is Hungarian as well :) So here is the recipe for the vegetarian rolls.

What you need:
1/2 Cup Brown/Wild Rice Uncooked
1/2 Cup Quinoa Uncooked
1 Can organic diced tomatoes
1 Cup Mixed Bell Peppers Chopped
1 Handful of Fresh Mushrooms Chopped
6 Cloves of Garlic Chopped
1 Medium Onion Chopped
2 Large Carrots Chopped and diced
2 Cans Tomato Sauce
3 TBSP Hungarian Paprika
1 TBSP Cayenne Pepper
1 Tsp Werschestershire sauce
1 Tsp Herbs de Providence
1 Jalapeno Diced
1- 15 oz Can Sauerkraut
1-2 Heads of Cabbage


-Cutting board
-Sharp Knife
-Stock Pot/Dutch Oven
-

Directions: Preheat oven to 350
1) Chop all veggies
2) In Dutch Oven/Stock Pot, get a pot of water boiling
3) Carefully pull about 12-14 leaves of cabbage off of the head and place them in the boiling water. Don't over boil them! Try about 3-4 minutes so that they are just able to be bent without tearing.
5) Put Quinoa & Rice in rice cooker. 2:1 ratio.
4) In frying pan, combine carrots, mushrooms, onions, garlic, jalapeno, and olive oil and sautee.
5) Turn veggies to medium-low and add tomatoes and 2 Tbsp Paprika, Cayenne Pepper, and Werscheestershire sauce.
6) Once the quinoa and rice is cooked, add them to the veggies and stir well. Cook on low-med heat for a few more minutes.
7) Pour 1 can of tomato sauce down in the baking pan
8) Now is time to roll the cabbage!
9) Put about 2-3 spoonfuls of the mix in the middle of the cabbage leaf. Fold forward, then fold in on the sides, then continue rolling. Place in pan. If it is too tough to roll them, put less filling in it!
10) Once you have rolled all your rolls, Pour the other can of tomato sauce over the top. Then sprinkle the sauerkraut on top of the tomato sauce.
11) Place in the oven and cook for 30 minutes with foil over the top. Then another 15 minutes without the foil.
12) Enjoy with some sour cream or by itself!

1 Tbsp Curry
2 Tbsp Hungarian Paprika
1 Tsp Garlic Powder
1 Tsp Onion Powder
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
 2 Cup Mixed Wild & Brown Rice (cooked)
