Grandma's Hungarian Stuffed Cabbage, Slow Cooker Variation
This is a recipe passed down from my great-grandmother, with a few shortcuts she approved of.
π Recipe adapted from AllRecipes
Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Cook cabbage in boiling water until outer leaves pull away easily from the head, 3 to 5 minutes.
Separate leaves and let cool.
Reserve 1 1/2 cup cooking water.
Heat oil in a large skillet.
Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in wet rice; cook and stir until moisture evaporates, about 1 minute.
Remove from heat and let cool, about 5 minutes.
Mix beef, sausage, and egg together in a large bowl.
Stir in cooled rice mixture.
Place a golfball-sized amount of the beef mixture on the ribbed end of a cabbage leaf; roll up, tucking in the sides.
Repeat with remaining beef mixture and cabbage leaves.
Place rolls seam-side down in a slow cooker.
Cover with tomato juice.
Pour reserved cooking water on top.
Cook on High for 30 minutes.
Switch to Low and cook for 6 1/2 hours.
