1/2 c Red onions; Chopped
1/2 c Mushrooms; Chopped
1 ts Garlic; Minced
2 tb Defatted chicken stock *
2 c Cooked rice; or barley

* Vegetarian use vegetable stock rather than chicken stock. 1. To make
sauce: In a 2 quart saucepan over medium-low heat, saute' the celery and
onions in the stock for about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the tomatoes, basil,
vinegar and oregano. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Set aside while you
make the rolls. 2. To make the cabbage rolls: In a small saucepan over low
heat, saute' the onions, mushrooms and garlic in the stock for 3 to 5
minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Stir in the rice or barley, tomatoes,
bread crumbs, soy sauce, parsley, curry and pepper. 3. Blanch the cabbage
leaves in boiling water for about 3 minutes, or until pliable. Drain. Place
about 1/2 cup of mixture on each leaf. Roll the leaf tightly to enclose the
filling. 4. Coat a 9x9 baking dish with no-stick spray. Add the rolls, seam
side down. Spread 1 cup of the tomato sauce over the rolls. Cover with foil
and bake at 400 F for 25 to 35 minutes. Serve the heated cabbage rolls with
the remaining sauce. Per serving: 230 calories, 2 g fat (7%), 8. g dietary

vitamin C. I usually freeze the head of cabbage so that I don't have to use
the boiling water method to separate the leaves and end up with scalded
fingers. Sources: Retrieved from: Jewish Food Recipe Archives
