My Grandpa William’s Stuffed Cabbages (Galumkies)
Ingredients and amounts:
Cooking Instructions:
Boil water and cook the rice, set aside
Cut the onions into small pieces, set aside
Combine the diced tomato's, condensed tomato soup, tomato paste, tomato sauce and V8 in a large bowl, set aside
Core the cabbages. Fill the large pot 2/3 full of water and place one inside and bring to a boil
While the cabbage is boiling, cut the salt into small pieces and render in the frying pan until the fat is gone, then add the onions and slowly saute
Combine the rendered salt, saute onions, cooked rice, the uncooked pork and beef hamburger and 1 cup of the combined tomato mixture, set aside
Now that the cabbage is boiling, carefully remove each cabbage leaf trying not to break them. Do the same steps for the 2nd head of cabbage. Save all loose or broken leaves for the bottom of the roasting pan
Preheat the oven to 350 F
Now it is time to stuff and roll the cabbages with the meat mixture. Put some meat mixture on the center of the cooked cabbages leaf and wrap the mixture up with the cabbage leaf the way you would put a diaper on a baby.
Line bottom of the roasting pan with cooked cabbages and layer the stuffed cabbages in the roasting pan. Pour the remaining tomato mixture into the roasting pan and place into the oven. Cook for 2-3 hours
