Asian Napa Cabbage Rolls
This would be great to use some ground beef with and you could put that Napa Cabbage to use if it is still in your fridge
Adapted from Aggie’s Kitchen
Ingredients
1lb ground beef
2 carrots, shredded
1 cup cooked brown rice or quinoa
4–5 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons ginger, minced
1 small onion, minced
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons Nakano rice vinegar
1 teaspoon chili or chili-garlic sauce
salt and pepper, to taste
leaves from 1 large head of Napa cabbage
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
- Prepare your filling by gently combining uncooked beef (or turkey), shredded carrots, cooked rice (or quinoa), garlic, ginger, onion, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, chili sauce and a pinch of salt and black pepper in a large mixing bowl.
- To make your leaves easy to roll, use a rolling pin to flatten to make leaves more pliable. If you find that your leaves are on the smaller side, use two to roll, overlapping both ends to make one big leaf.
- Spoon your filling to each leaf. Carefully roll each leaf tightly and place side by side in a large baking dish. Pour 1 cup of water over stuffed cabbage rolls and cover with aluminum foil. Bake in preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes or until completely cooked through.
- Serve with juices from baking dish and additional chili sauce.
