Zubereitung von Middle Eastern Meatless Cabbage Rolls
- Gently sauté 1/2 cup chopped spring onions in 1/4 cup olive oil for 2-3 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the sautéed spring onions with 1 cup cooked brown rice, 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas (mashed), 1 cup chopped fresh tomatoes (no need to peel!), 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Carefully remove cabbage leaves from a large head of cabbage (about 2 pounds). To avoid tearing, briefly blanch the leaves in boiling water, 2-3 leaves at a time, until softened (about 2-3 minutes).
- Drain the leaves and rinse under cold water. Cut out the thick center rib from each leaf and cut any large leaves in half.
- Line the bottom of a large, deep pot or Dutch oven with the thicker cabbage ribs and any torn leaf pieces.
- Place a generous tablespoon of the filling onto the base of each cabbage leaf. Roll tightly, tucking in the sides to secure the filling.
- Repeat until all the filling is used.
- In a small bowl, mash 2 cloves of garlic with 1 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint.
- Pack the cabbage rolls seam-down into the prepared pot, layering the garlic-lemon mixture between each layer.
- Invert a plate on top of the cabbage rolls to keep them submerged during cooking.
- Add enough cold water to just cover the rolls. Cover the pot tightly with a lid.
- Bring the water to a boil, then reduce heat to low, and simmer for 45 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 30 minutes before serving.
- Serve warm or cold. Enjoy!
