Preparation Steps
Step 1
Transform ordinary cabbage: separate the head into leaves and, as if sending them to a spa, immerse them in boiling salted water for 6–8 minutes. Then, as after the best massage, drain them in a colander to remove excess moisture.
Step 2
Craft culinary treasures: place the prepared filling on chilled cabbage leaves and wrap them into envelopes, as if sealing the flavor in an embrace. Dip the cabbage rolls in lightly beaten eggs and fry in heated butter for 5 minutes on each side, until they are golden and appetizing.
Step 3
Prepare tudma to perfection: arrange the cabbage rolls in a wide saucepan, cover with sauce, add a bay leaf, and simmer under the lid over low heat for 35–40 minutes, so that each ingredient fully reveals its taste and aroma.
For sauce:
Step 1
Create the flavor base: peel the onion and carrot, finely chop the onion, and grate the carrot on a coarse grater, as if preparing for culinary magic. In a saucepan, melt the butter and sauté the onion until golden brown (about 6 minutes). Add the carrot and cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the aromas to blend in a delightful symphony.
Step 2
Finish the sauce masterfully: add diced tomatoes and tomato paste, simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Pour in 100 ml of water and sour cream, season with salt and pepper, bring to a boil, and cook for 10 minutes, until the sauce reaches the perfect consistency and richness.
Step 3
Prepare the filling with soul: peel the onion and cut into quarters. Wash the meat, dry it, and cut it into large pieces. Mince the meat and onion. Add rice, salt, pepper, and mix thoroughly – this is the basis of Tatar flavor!
