Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Remove any damaged outer leaves from the cabbage, rinse and cut out the core.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the cabbage and boil for 8-10 minutes until leaves soften.
- Remove the cabbage, allow to cool, and separate 12 large softened leaves. Trim the thick center rib.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet. Sauté onion for 4 minutes, add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- In a bowl, combine beef, cooked rice, sautéed onion and garlic, egg, Worcestershire sauce, and spices. Mix gently.
- Divide the beef mixture into 6 portions. Overlap 2 cabbage leaves, place filling in the center, and roll tightly.
- In a saucepan, heat remaining olive oil. Add tomato paste, cook for 1 minute, then add tomatoes and broth. Stir in sugar and oregano.
- Spread half of the sauce in a baking dish, arrange cabbage rolls seam side down, spoon remaining sauce over them, and cover with foil.
- Bake for 55 minutes. Remove foil, spoon sauce over rolls, and bake uncovered for another 15-20 minutes.
- Let rest for 10 minutes. Garnish with parsley and serve warm.
