Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 medium carrot
- 2 celery stalk
- 1 small head green cabbage
- 28 ounces canned diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 6 cups beef broth
- 1 cup uncooked white rice
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 bay leaves
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic. Add them to the pot and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the pot. Cook and break it up with a wooden spoon until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease if necessary.
Peel and dice the carrots, and slice the celery into small pieces. Stir them into the pot and cook for 3-4 minutes to soften.
Cut the head of cabbage into bite-sized chunks. Add the cabbage to the pot and stir to combine.
Stir in the canned diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and beef broth. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the soup is boiling, add the uncooked rice, thyme, paprika, salt, black pepper, and bay leaves. Stir well, then reduce the heat to low to simmer.
Cover the pot with a lid and let the soup simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the cabbage is soft.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Remove the bay leaves before serving.
Finely chop the parsley and sprinkle it over individual bowls as a garnish before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy this flavorful, comforting cabbage roll soup!
