Preparation of Baked Cabbage Rolls

• Let’s see how to prepare the rolls.

  First, remove the leaves and clean them from impurities and wash them well. Place them in a small pot filled with water and blanch them one at a time, just long enough to soften them, otherwise they won’t roll. Wash and clean the carrots and zucchini and cut them into small cubes and blanch them for a few minutes in another small pot with water, meanwhile finely chop the onion and sauté it in a pan with a little oil, when it’s sautéed add the carrots and zucchini and cook for 6/7 minutes. In a bowl, pour the ricotta, start to mix until it becomes creamy, slightly mash the vegetables and add them to the ricotta, mix well, salt and pepper while mixing. Take a cabbage leaf and start stuffing it, close the leaf, put a bit of oil in a baking dish and place the roll inside turning it upside down and keeping it tight, stuff the other leaves and fill the baking dish, when you’re finished sprinkle the rolls with grated Parmesan cheese, add a drizzle of oil and bake in the hot oven and cook for 25 minutes or at least until desired browning.
