METHOD
- Cook the meat in approximately 1 liter (4 cups) water until half cooked. In a separate saucepan, cook the rice until half cooked.
- Meanwhile, prepare the filling: combine the ground pork, drained rice, crushed garlic, egg, salt and pepper until well blended.
- Place some stuffing on each cabbage leaf and roll up, tucking in the ends so the leaves won't open up. Wet your hands and shape the remaining filling into balls.
- In a large skillet, fry the smoked bacon until the fat renders out; add the onion and fry until translucent, sprinkle with paprika, add half the sour cabbage leaves and the meat balls, and finally, the rest of the sour cabbage.
- Cut the sausage into rounds and put on top, add the bay leaf and the smoked pork chops, and enough water to cover half-way. Cover and cook over low heat until tender.
- Remove the stuffed cabbage leaves with a slotted spoon and set aside. Stir the flour into 2-3 tbsp. sour cream until smooth, add a little water, stir again, and add to the cabbage, stirring all the time. Bring to a boil, return the stuffed cabbage leaves to the pot, and bring to the boil once again.
- Before serving, sprinkle with half of the left-over sour cream; serve the other half in a separate dish, on the side.
Note: This dish is even better reheated.
