Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup White rice
- 1.5 cups Water
- 2 cups Green cabbage
- 0.5 pound Ground beef
- 1 small Onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 1 cup Crushed tomatoes
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
Instructions
Rinse the white rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then drain.
Chop the green cabbage into small, bite-sized pieces. Finely dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Set your rice cooker to the 'Sauté' mode (if available) or use a pan on the stovetop. Add the vegetable oil and cook the ground beef until it is browned and fully cooked through, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the cooked ground beef. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
Stir in the chopped cabbage and cook for another 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the rinsed rice, water, crushed tomatoes, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning to the rice cooker. Stir everything together until well combined.
Close the rice cooker lid and set it to the standard 'Cook' mode. Allow it to cook until the rice cooker automatically switches to 'Warm' mode (approximately 30-35 minutes for most rice cookers).
Once the cooking cycle is complete, open the lid and carefully fluff the casserole with a fork. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Close the lid again and let the heat from the rice cooker melt the cheese for an additional 5 minutes.
Serve warm and enjoy your hearty Rice Cooker Cabbage Casserole!
