Stuffed Cabbage Leaves - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 head cabbage or savory cabbage
meat or rice stuffing
1 Tbsp. cornstarch powder
salt
3 oz. (85 g) fat or bacon fat
1/2 to 1 pt. water
leftover gravy
1 Tbsp. cold water

Preparation

Remove the leaves from the stalk of the cabbage, then pare down the ribs so that the leaves are fairly flat.
Put the leaves into boiling salted water and cook until half done.
Lay two or three large leaves together, spread with stuffing and roll up. Tie them with thread (previously boiled) or secure with skewers. Heat the fat or the diced bacon; put in the cabbage rolls and brown slightly on all sides.
Add water as required and a little gravy, if available.
Thicken the cooking liquid with cornstarch powder, blended with the water; season to taste and poured over the cabbage rolls.
Cooking time: about 45 minutes.
