INGREDIENTS:
Patties:
Prepare ingredients:
- 1 lb of ground meat (beef or chicken or a mix to taste)
- 1 lb of cabbage
- 1 big carrot
- 1 big onion
- 0.5 cup of rice
- 1 egg
- Small bunch of fresh fill
- 2 garlic cloves
- Pepper to taste
- Salt to taste
- Oil
- 4 tablespoons of sour cream
- 4-6 tablespoons of tomato sauce (can be replaced with 2 tablespoons of tomato paste)
- Water or vegetable broth about a cup (or less)
- Pepper to taste
- Salt to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Boil rice to until it is almost ready , pour it over to colander to drain all water out and set it aside to cool down
- Warm up deep skillet with a bit of oil, peel and chop onions, add them to the skillet and fry over medium heat until softened and slightly colored, stir from time to time.
- While onions are cooking, peel and grate carrot over big slots; once onions are ready add carrots to the skillet, continue cooking carrots and onions together for about 5 mins, stir from time to time.
- Meanwhile, chop cabbage (you can do it with a knife or a shredder, but some kind of food processor works best here), discard hard stem part; start gradually adding chopped cabbage to the skillet (it may seem that there a too much cabbage to fit, but the volume will reduce with cooking), until all cabbage is in.
- Cook all vegetables over moderate heat for 10 mins together (you want to get soft cabbage); continue stirring.
- Move cooked vegetables to a mixing bowl.
- Add cooked rice; mix it all and let it cool down to room temperature.
- Then peel and press garlic cloves in.
- Add chopped dill.
- Add all ground meat.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Crack an egg in.
- And mix everything well (I used hands):
- Let’s mix sauce (you will need about 1.5-1.75 cups of sauce, use water or vegetable broth to add up to the mixture of sour cream and tomato sauce (or paste) to get this amount or sauce):.
- Warm oven to 365F. Form patties (for each scoop meat mixture with a tablespoon, roll meatball and then press it from two sides to receive a patty) and then arrange patties in a deep baking pan.
- Pour sauce over patties.
- Put baking pan to warmed up oven for 30 mins.
- Serve hot with sauce poured over:
