Aunt Addie's Album


I didn’t plant cabbage this year; when I do, the snails always get it before I do. But friends and family had a bumper crop, and I was the happy recipient of their bounty. We made slaw, soup, and oriental salad, and:

Cabbage Rolls

8 large cabbage leaves
1 cup cooked rice
1 1/4 pounds ground beef
1/2 cup minced onion
1 egg, beaten
Salt and pepper
1 can condensed tomato soup

Bring a stockpot full of salted water to a boil. Add cabbage leaves turn down heat. Simmer 3 or 4 minutes, until leaves are softened but not torn. Drain carefully. As leaves are cooling combine rice, beef, onion, egg, seasoning and a tablespoon of the soup. Mix by hand and divide into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion in a cabbage leaf and place, seam down, in stockpot. Top with remaining soup. Cover and simmer about 40 minutes. We ate ours hot with sour cream and steamed broccoli.
