Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 2 hours 5 minutes

Total Time 2 hours 25 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 head of sauerkraut/fermented cabbage (medium size)
• 5 medium size onions (chopped)
• 1 head of garlic
• 2-3 medium size carrots (shredded)
• 1 1/2 cups brown rice
• 3-4 tbsp ground sunflower seeds (or soya flakes)
• 1 tbsp ground red pepper
• 1/2 tsp chili pepper flakes
• 2 tsp vegetable seasoning
• sea salt and pepper (to taste)
• 3 bay leaves
• 1 1/2 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 1 cup cold water
• 1 tsp ground red pepper

Instructions

1. Separate the leaves from the cabbage head. From each leaf, use a knife to remove the thickened part of the leaf along the root, to form the rolls more easily.
2. For the filling. In a medium size bowl put chopped onions, shredded carrots, rice (pre-washed), 3 cloves of garlic (finely chopped), soya flakes, 1 tbsp ground red pepper, 1/2 tsp chili pepper flakes, vegetable seasoning, sea salt and pepper to taste. Mix until combined.
3. Assemble the rolls. Place a cabbage leaf on a plate and put about 1 tbsp of filling in the middle of the leaf. Fold the sides of the cabbage leaf and roll it up.
4. At the bottom of the large pot place couple of cabbage leaves to cover up the bottom and place the cabbage rolls. When everything is arranged, put the remaining garlic cloves and bay leaf over it.
5. Top with the remaining cabbage leaves. Add water to the top. All the rolls should be under the water.
6. To press the rolls, cover them with a plate and place pot lid over.
7. Cook the rolls over medium to high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cook for about 2 hours. To avoid burning, be careful not to run out of water, add if needed.
8. When the rolls are cooked, take the plate out of the pot.
9. Mix together all purpose flour, cup of water and 1 tsp ground red pepper. Pour the mixture over the rolls and leave on the stove to cook for a couple of minutes. Bring to boil and move from the stove top.
