[Kitchen Alchemy] Cabbage Roll

Rice covered in rich tomato sauce. Oh joy.

Okay, listen up wanna-be chefs, or people who just want to learn how to cook to survive the urban life, today I'll be sharing you a recipe that I consider "rustic". Heck, one of my older brothers consider it as a comfort food, and I have to agree with him on that. But such foods require quite some effort, and this cabbage roll recipe is no exception.

So what's a cabbage roll? Simply put, it's prepared ground meat wrapped in a cabbage leaf and cooked in tomato sauce. Can't get any simpler than that. I was told our mother used to cook this even before I was born (I learned how to cook for the sole reason I consider it as a total necessity in life), and after several years of making it (trial and error, total failure, you name it), I can claim this recipe as my own, or for my family.

Let's get started, shall we? Then wash your hands, ready your name, and time to put your head onto the chopping block after the break. So to speak.
