For this months Daring Cook's challenge Olga from Effortnesslessly challenged us to make stuffed cabbage rolls using her Ukrainian heritage to inspire us. Filled with meat, fish or vegetables, flexibility and creativity were the name of the game to get us rolling!
It has been many years since I have had a cabbage roll and I don't know why. Olga introduced us to some very interesting variations - I didn't even know there was such a thing as a seafood cabbage roll. I really wanted to try one of these but since it would be my wife and sons first time to try a cabbage roll I figured I should do good old beef this time.
There was nothing hard about making the cabbage rolls but it was several steps and took a couple of hours to complete. The recipe said it served 8-10 so I decided to cut the recipe in half. Well even cut in half the recipe made me 20 good sized cabbage rolls - lots of leftovers. Well it turned out the leftovers were a good thing. Someone at church just had a baby so we were able to provide them with a nice supper and a few lunches for us. Everyone enjoyed them - maybe I can get my wife to let me try the seafood version next time.
