Method

1. Boil the whole cabbage leaves in salted water for 3-4 minutes until flexible, then drain and pat dry.
2. In a separate pot, cook the rice in boiling water for half its suggested time, then drain.
3. Remove the sausage casing and crumble the meat into a pan with chopped onion and half the oil.
4. Sauté the sausage for 5 minutes over medium heat, then mix it with the parboiled rice in a bowl.
5. Place a portion of the rice and meat mixture onto each cabbage leaf, roll tightly, and tuck in the sides.
6. Place the rolls in a pan with the tomato passata and remaining oil, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
7. Adjust the seasoning and serve the rolls hot with the thickened tomato sauce.

Tips

• Remove the thickest part of the central cabbage rib to make rolling easier.
• These rolls are even better the next day after the flavors have fully melded.
