Stuffed Cabbage




The portuguese version of stuffed cabbage is made with fresh sausages. It is not a complicated recipe, yet it requires a little extra time than the quick half hour meals I usually make. It is a good dish to make on a cloudy weekend, I think, since this is a warm and comforting dish.
I start by giving a very quick boil on the leaves then after letting them cool off a minute, I roll the sausage. I bought italian sweet sausages and it worked very well.
I make a tomato sauce with onions, garlic, fresh tomatoes, and a tiny hot pepper (so it's not too hot for my assistant). I then add some of the water from the cabbage, salt and pepper, and place the stuffed cabbage inside. Let it cook on low heat covered. I served with rice and everyone loved it.
