Töltött kaposzta

Hungarian stuffed cabbage consists of blanched fresh or sour cabbage leaves that are stuffed with a flavorful mixture of minced pork, onions, rice, and seasonings. Neatly tucked rolls are layered with sliced sauerkraut and slowly cooked. Traditionally, stuffed cabbage is cooked alongside smoked meat, and it can be slowly baked in the oven or cooked on the stovetop. Often thickened with paprika-spiced roux and served topped with sour cream, these tender rolls are traditionally associated with Christmastime and are often served on other festive and special occasions.
