Asian Style Cabbage Rolls - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 large cabbage leaves, whole
200 g ground turkey
1/2 medium carrot, peeled cut into thin match sticks
2 green onions, minced
1/4 cup water chestnut, diced
1/2 cup bean sprouts
1/4 cup shredded snow peas
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
100 g cellophane noodles, soaked in cold water for 1 hour

Preparation

Set up a steamer, add enough water to cover the bottom by an inch or so, and bring it to a boil. Separate the 8 cabbage leaves. Steam the leaves for 5 minutes or just until they are pliable. Cool them under cold water and set aside. Trim the thick core from each leaf.
Combine the remaining ingredients and mix well.
Lay each cabbage leaf out onto a work surface. Divide the filling into eight (around 3 tablespoonsa roll) then lay a portion on each leaf.
To roll, fold one end of the cabbage leaf over the filling. Fold in each side then roll into a log shape.
Place the cabbage rolls on a plate and chill before cooking. This recipe may be made up to one day ahead to this point.
To cook the cabbage rolls, place them in a steamer set over, not in, boiling water. Steam them for 15 minutes to thoroughly cook them. Serve them with a soy dipping sauce.
