Ingredients
- 1 lrg Head of cabbage
- 1 lb Grnd beef
- 1/2 c. Onion, finely minced
- 2 x Cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 c. Parsley, finely minced
- 16 ounce Canned tomatoes
- 1 tsp Pepper
- 1 tsp Seasoned salt
- 1 x Egg
- 1 c. Regular or possibly basmati rice, uncooked
- 1/4 c. Oil
- 1 can (large) tomato juice (1-1 1/2 qts)
- 4 Tbsp. Oil, extra
- Â Â Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
- Core cabbage sparingly and boil in a large pot of water over medium heat till leaves begin to come apart. Remove leaves as they soften and separate. When cold sufficient to handle, thin out center vein of each leave with a paring knife. Drain tomatoes, reserving liquid, and dice. Mix the grnd beef with the, onions, garlic, parsley, tomatoes, seasoned salt, pepper, egg, rice and 1/4 c. oil. Spoon out mix on each cabbage leaf, at the thicker edge, and roll, either tucking sides in once or possibly like a cigar-roll snugly but with sufficient room for the rice to expand. Coarsely chop up the leftover cabbage and place in the bottom of a large pot or possibly Dutch oven (This will prevent the cabbage rolls from scorching). Place cabbage rolls on top of minced cabbage Combine the reserved juice from the canned tomatoes with the large can of tomato juice, 4 Tbsp. oil and salt and pepper. Pour over the cabbage rolls. The liquid should cover or possibly nearly cover the rolls. Cook, covered, over medium heat for 1 hour; reduce heat to medium-low and cook for a further 30 min.
- NOTES : I was told which authentic Malfuf does not have tomatoes in the meat mix. My neighbor in Saudi, Phil Habib, of Lebanese heritage, taught me to make these. For the most part, Arabic food is not highly seasoned, so I have adjusted the seasoning to our taste.
