Emeril's Stuffed Cabbage With Sweet and Sour Tomato Sauce
YIELD 4 to 6 servings
INGREDIENTS
| 1/2 cup | basmati rice |
| 1 | head green cabbage |
| 1 pound | ground turkey |
| 1 | onion finely minced |
| 1 tablespoon | garlic |
| 3 tablespoons | minced parsley |
| 1 1/2 teaspoons | salt |
| 1/2 teaspoon | fresh ground pepper |
| 1/2 teaspoon | ground allspice |
| 1/2 teaspoon | dried savory |
| 1/2 teaspoon | dried marjoram |
| 1/3 to 1/2 cup | water |
| 3 cups | Tomato Sauce |
| 1/2 cup | apple cider vinegar |
| 1/4 cup | light brown sugar |
PREPARATION:
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large saucepan, parboil rice for 10 minutes. Drain and set aside. Core cabbage and bring water to a boil in a large stockpot. Add the cabbage, cover the pan, and cook until cabbage is softened, about 5 minutes. Keep removing leaves as they peel off easily. Chop the leaves that are too small or torn and layer in the bottom of the baking pan.
- Blend raw ground turkey, the onions, garlic, salt, pepper, allspice, savory, marjoram and
- parboiled rice. Mix well, adding enough water to make mixture sticky. Using a small ice
- cream scoop, scoop the turkey mixture into cabbage leaf at the stem end. Roll as you
- would an egg roll, pulling in both sides and rolling up. Place in baking pan. Continue
- until all of the turkey and cabbage has been used.
- Mix tomato sauce with vinegar and sugar. Spoon tomato sauce over the cabbage. Cover the pan with foil and bake covered for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
