Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Green cabbage
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 cup Cauliflower rice
- 1 small Onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Tomato sauce
- 1 teaspoon Stevia or low-carb sweetener
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Carefully remove the core from the cabbage and place the entire head into the boiling water. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the outer leaves are tender and malleable, then transfer the cabbage to a large bowl of ice water.
Peel off 10-12 large leaves and set them aside. Return the cabbage to the boiling water if needed to soften more leaves.
Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the chopped onion and garlic for 2-3 minutes until they are fragrant and translucent.
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, cauliflower rice, sautéed onion and garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, chopped parsley, and the egg. Mix well using your hands or a spoon until fully integrated.
Lay a cabbage leaf flat on your workspace. Place about 2-3 tablespoons of the meat mixture at the bottom center of the leaf. Fold in the sides and roll up tightly from the base to form a neat roll. Repeat with the remaining leaves and filling.
In a separate bowl, mix the tomato sauce and stevia. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
In a large baking dish, spread a thin layer of the tomato sauce mixture. Arrange the cabbage rolls seam side down in the dish.
Pour the remaining tomato sauce over the cabbage rolls, ensuring they are evenly covered.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
