Description

No matter what anyone says, our cuisine is unthinkable without meat cabbage rolls. Probably, everyone remembers how their grandmother or mother did, and this process resembled a sacred ceremony. Say, the modern housewife has absolutely no time for such delights? We do not agree! Once or twice a year, on weekends, you can definitely find an hour and a half to create this iconic dish. And yet, it should be noted that the process of preparing meat cabbage rolls can become a kind of meditation for each of us, who are always in a hurry and late somewhere. Calmly boil the cabbage leaves. Do not rush to prepare minced meat. Then spread it over the cabbage leaves and carefully wrap it, trying to make the cabbage rolls even and beautiful. Pure creativity, you must agree! And then it remains only to brown the meat cabbage rolls, pour them with sour cream sauce with vegetables and simmer for half an hour - perhaps in the same brazier in which your grandmother cooked.
