Lazy cabbage rolls with rice

Lazy cabbage rolls with rice are the fastest way to cook minced meat with cabbage. The step-by-step recipe consists of simple actions. Minced meat is prepared from vegetables and meat, cutlets are formed and baked in the oven. The result is a healthy and satisfying dish that does not require a side dish. Perhaps a salad of fresh vegetables. The secret of lazy cabbage rolls is that the cabbage is placed directly into the minced meat. There is no need to wrap the filling in cabbage leaves.

How to cook Lazy cabbage rolls with rice

Step 1

Lazy cabbage rolls with rice

Prepare the mince and form the cabbage rolls. Mix the mince, rice, cabbage, onion, and egg. Salt and pepper to taste. Form small cutlets and place them in a baking dish.

Step 2

Lazy cabbage rolls with rice

Bake the cabbage rolls. In a separate container, mix the tomato paste with the cabbage water (200 ml of water per 60 g of tomato paste). Pour the cabbage rolls so that they are drowned in the sauce, about halfway. Put in an oven preheated to 200 degrees and bake for 30 minutes.

Lazy cabbage rolls with rice - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes! You can use ground turkey, chicken, pork, or a mix of meats for a different flavor. Leaner meats may require a bit more seasoning for taste.
Replace the mince with lentils, mashed beans, or a plant-based ground meat alternative. Omit the egg or use a flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed + 3 tbsp water) to bind the mixture.
Store cooled leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
Absolutely! Freeze them in a single layer before baking or after cooling. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat in the oven for best texture.
Skip the rice and add riced cauliflower or finely chopped mushrooms for bulk. Ensure your tomato paste is low-carb or replace with a cream-based sauce.
Serve with a crisp green salad, roasted vegetables, or crusty bread. A dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt adds creaminess.
Yes! If using fresh cabbage, blend 200ml water with 60g tomato paste and a handful of shredded cabbage for a fresher sauce.
Double or triple the recipe as needed. Use a larger baking dish or divide into two dishes to ensure even cooking. Baking time may increase slightly.
The mixture may be too wet. Add breadcrumbs or more rice to absorb excess moisture. Let the mixture rest for 10 mins before forming for better binding.
