Pin Recipe Instructions
- Prepare all the necessary foods.
You will also need 200 ml of warm water for cooking rice.
- Rinse the rice, send to a frying pan or saucepan and pour in warm water. (Round-grain rice is starchy. You don’t need to rinse it thoroughly, as it will combine all the ingredients in cabbage rolls well). Cook rice for 12-15 minutes, until half cooked. Then let the rice cool slightly.
- Peel the onions, rinse and dry. Cut the onion into small pieces (cubes).
- Peel the carrots, rinse and grate on a medium grater.
- Chop the cabbage at random, transfer to the bowl of a kitchen blender.
- Grind the cabbage at high speeds as much as possible.
- Put carrots, onions, cabbage in a deep bowl.
- Add minced meat and rice to vegetables.
- Drive a large egg into it.
- Add salt, pepper, 0.5 teaspoon paprika and dried garlic.
- Mix all ingredients thoroughly.
- Grease a dish that is suitable for microwave ovens. Form balls from minced meat, put them in a mold.
- Mix 200 ml of water with tomato paste and sour cream, add the remaining paprika.
- Pour the prepared cutlets with sauce, add bay leaf. Cook cabbage rolls at 750 watts for 25 minutes.
- Put ready-made lazy cabbage rolls, cooked in the microwave, on a plate and pour over the sauce. Good appetite!
