Gołąbki

A Polish dinner built around cabbage and ground pork — on the table in 100 minutes. Each serving lands at 480 calories with 26g of protein, so it eats like a much heavier meal. No specialty equipment and nothing hard to find at a regular grocery store.

Ingredients

• 1 head Cabbage
• 1 lb Ground pork
• 1/2 lb Ground beef
• 1 cup Rice
• 1 Onion
• 2 cups Tomato sauce
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 2 tbsp Dill

Steps

1. Simmer the whole cored cabbage 8 minutes, peeling leaves as they loosen; trim the thick ribs.
2. Mix the meats with parboiled rice, grated onion, salt, and pepper into a juicy filling.
3. Roll tight parcels, tucking the sides like tiny burritos.
4. Line a pot with torn leaves, pack the rolls seam-down, and pour over tomato sauce whisked with sour cream.
5. Braise covered on low 60 minutes until the cabbage is completely silky.
6. Rest 10 minutes and serve with dill and extra sauce; gołąbki reheat beautifully.
