Ingredients
Instructions
- Core the cabbage and steam until the leaves can be peeled off in whole pieces.
- In a large bowl, mix together ground beef, ground pork, rice, half of the grated onion, salt, and pepper.
- Add enough cold water to the meat and rice mixture until it becomes sloppy and easy to work with.
- Line the bottom of a roast pan with outer, torn cabbage leaves.
- Pour half of the sauerkraut over the leaves.
- Roll a small amount of the meat and rice mixture in each cabbage leaf, starting from the stem side and tucking in the edges.
- Place the cabbage rolls in layers on top of the sauerkraut in the pan.
- Add the remaining sauerkraut with its juice, whole tomatoes with juice, and half a can of water to the pan.
- Top with the remaining torn cabbage leaves, which will burn during cooking and should be discarded afterward.
- Cover the pan and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 1 hour.
- Serve hot, ideally with mashed potatoes and crusty bread.
