- 1
Boil the cabbage to soften the leaves and carefully separate the leaves from the core.
- 2
On the side, mix the minced beef with the washed & rinsed rice, spices & salt
- 3
When the leaves are ready, meaning you can roll them gently without them breaking, take them out of the boiling pot. Add the mixture like in the photo and start rolling the cabbage slowly.
- 4
Place the rolls side by side in a pot and in between place the peeled cloves of garlic. Keep going until all cabbage leaves and the meat are used or pot is full ;)
- 5
Fry some garlic with olive oil and a squeeze of 🍋. When they get golden color add them to the pot
- 6
Add the lemon juice to the pot as well and add water until all rolls are covered up. Place a "heavy" plate on the pot, bring them to boil (high temperature)
- 7
Turn the heat down and let them simmer slowly for ~45min or more if needed (cabbage should not be crunchy by then)
- 8
Serve hot. I serve it with plain yogurt (or greek) and a squeeze of lemon.

Black pepper, Cinnamon, Cumin, Coriander, Cardamom, Cloves, and Nutmeg.
The ratio is one measure of the first 5 spices and 1/2 measure of the last 2.
I personally never made it myself but now I am curious to try!
