Cabbage Rolls baked in the oven (Golybtsi)

Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground pork
1 large cabbage
2 carrots
1 large onion
1 Tbsp oil
1/2 cup of any rice
4.5 cups Campbell's Tomato Juice
1 cup Half and Half whiping cream
Salt and pepper to taste
You can also use any of your favorite seasoning (I prefer Vegeta)

Process:

1. Put a large cabbage into a freezer for 3 days.
2. After 3 days, take it out of the freezer and let it defrost at room temperature over night (I suggest not less then 12 hrs)
3. Cook 1/2 cup of rice with 1 cup of water. Salt to taste.
4. Chop onion and grate carrots.

5. In a large skillet over medium heat, saute onion and carrots with 1 Tbsp of oil until soft.
6. Mix ground beef, ground pork, cooked rice and sauted vegetables. Add salt and pepper to taste.

7. Peel and discard the top two leaves from the cabbage. Pull off the leaves from the cabbage.
Large leaves cut in half removing the tough steam portion. You will end up with two leaves.
                                     
Put some meat mixture on each leaf and roll it.

Arrange in a glass baking dish. I ended up having one large and one small baking dishes full of nicely rolled cabbage rolls.

6. Mix 4.5 cups of Campbell's Tomato Juice with 1 cup of Half and Half Whipping Cream. Salt to taste.

7. Pour over your cabbage rolls.

8. Preheat oven to 375 F.
9. Cover glass baking dish with Aluminium Foil.

10. Cook in the oven for 1 hour 30 minutes until cabbage is soft.

ENJOY!!!
