Sarma (Stuffed Cabbage)

Sarma (Stuffed Cabbage)
  • 1 large head cabbage
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/2 pound ground pork
  • 1/2 pound ground ham
  • 1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
  • 1 pound sauerkraut
  • 1 cup tomato juice
  • water to cover


  1. Place cabbage in the freezer for a few days. The night before making the rolls, take it out to thaw.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the beef, pork, ham, rice, onion, egg, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix well. Form meat mixture into oblong balls, using 1/2 cup of the mixture at a time. Then, wrap a cabbage leaf around each ball.
  3. Spread the sauerkraut in the bottom of a large pot, then layer cabbage rolls on top, placing them seam-side down. Pour tomato juice over rolls, then add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for about 3 hours, adding more water as necessary.
