Step by Step guide
Step 1
Cut the lamb into small pieces and then pass it through a meat grinder.
Step 2
Add partially boiled rice, finely chopped onion, salt, pepper, and chopped herbs (cilantro, mint, basil, thyme) to the minced meat.
Step 3
Mix the filling thoroughly.
Step 4
Remove the core from the cabbage head, then place the cabbage in salted boiling water and cook for 10-12 minutes. Drain the cabbage and, when the water has drained, separate the leaves. Lay the leaves on the table and cut off the thick stems with a knife. Then place the meat filling on the cabbage leaves and wrap them like envelopes.
Step 5
In a pot, place the chopped bones left after separating the meat and a layer of cabbage leaves, then arrange the stuffed cabbage rolls on top, placing dried apricots, quince, or sliced apples, and onion rings in between.
Step 6
Next, add the sautéed tomato puree, pour in hot broth or hot water, and cover with an inverted plate. Cover the pot with a lid and simmer the stuffed cabbage rolls on low heat until cooked.
Step 7
Serve the stuffed cabbage rolls drizzled with the juice that formed during cooking, and place dried apricots and quince next to them.
