Holubtsi (Ukrainian Cabbage Rolls) - eviltoast

Pork, rice, onions and herbs rolled in Savoy cabbage leaves and poached in tomato juice.

I vacuum sealed them individually for the freezer.

    Thanks! I haven’t had any for years because I can’t eat beef. I had always wondered if they could be made with pork but never tried it. I was at a farmers market where a Ukrainian refugee family was selling homemade Ukrainian food and the wind was blowing toward me. I told her I was going to eat one even if it hurt me and she told me they were pork. That sealed it.

      As a Ukrainian, you can put almost anything into these haha. I have also tried a variation where instead of cabbage it’s stuffed peppers.

        There’s nothing bad about the filling. You can put it anywhere. The only issue is that I use converted rice which I put in dry then hydrate with the tomato juice. If I used cooked rice I would stuff that stuff into anything.
