  1. How to prepare lazy cabbage rolls with rice, cabbage, and minced meat in a saucepan? Begin by gathering the necessary ingredients. You can use any type of minced meat, such as beef-pork blend, chicken, or turkey. You have the option to use store-bought minced meat or prepare it yourself.
  2. Start by cooking the rice. Rinse the rice thoroughly, then place it in a pot of clean, cold water. Bring the water to a boil and cook the rice for a couple of minutes. Drain the rice using a sieve and let it cool.
  3. Dice the cabbage into small pieces. While some recipes suggest grating the cabbage with a coarse grater for lazy cabbage rolls, this one uses diced cabbage. You can also use Napa cabbage instead of white cabbage.
  4. Place the diced cabbage in a bowl and pour boiling water over it. Allow the cabbage to sit for 10 minutes, then drain any excess liquid by flipping it onto a sieve. Alternatively, you can briefly boil the cabbage for 5 minutes or sauté it in a frying pan with oil.
  5. Dice the onion into small pieces.
  6. Grate the carrots using a coarse grater.
  7. Sauté the vegetables in a small amount of vegetable oil until they become soft, which should take about 5 minutes. Sauté the vegetables in a small amount of vegetable oil until they become soft, which should take about 5 minutes.
  8. In a bowl, combine the minced meat, cooked rice, cabbage, and sautéed vegetables. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. You can also add your favorite spices. Beat in the egg.
  9. Mix the minced meat until it reaches a viscous state, ensuring it is well-molded and doesn’t fall apart. If needed, add another egg or a bit of water to achieve the desired consistency.
  10. With wet hands, shape oblong cabbage rolls from the minced meat and then roll them in flour. This recipe yields 8 rolls, but you can adjust the quantity as needed.
  11. Fry the cabbage rolls in vegetable oil on both sides until they turn golden brown. Use a high heat setting under the pan and ensure there is enough oil, as cabbage rolls tend to absorb it quickly.
  12. Place the fried cabbage rolls in a saucepan with a thick bottom, or you can use a Dutch oven or a frying pan with high sides.
  13. Prepare the sauce by mixing sour cream with tomato paste. Dilute this mixture with hot water until it reaches the consistency of liquid kefir. Add salt to taste.
  14. Pour the cabbage rolls with the prepared sauce, ensuring they are almost completely covered. If you find that there isn’t enough sauce, you can add water directly to the pan.
  15. Place the saucepan over medium heat, allowing the sauce to come to a boil. Cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Simmer the cabbage rolls for 30-40 minutes.
  16. Serve the cabbage rolls with sour cream or mayonnaise. Enjoy your meal!
