My mom used to make cabbage rolls, and I've seen many videos where people demonstrate making them, but you're the first to show how to make them unrolled. I think I'm going to try it!
Please let me know how you like them!!!
It looks amazing! Thank you for sharing your grandma’s recipe. I hope you and your family are well and safe.🙏
You are very welcome! We are all safe and thank you for checking!
My mom made a version of this & called it "sloppy cabbage." Absolutely easy to make & delicious!
Thank you for sharing. I love cabbage rolls. This makes better use of my time.
You are so welcome!
I just made this and thank you for the ease of this recipe!! Delicious!!
Glad you liked it!!
I'm Slovak, this is very similar to my mom's. Difference is, half ground pork, half ground beef is used. Also, drained sauerkraut is added. Thanks for this recipe...much easier than stuffing the cabbage leaves, which need to be cooked before stuffed. Eliminates two big steps...!!
Yes, lazy version is so much easier. There are so many variations of cabbage rolls among Ukrainians and all Eastern European countries. I love to add sauerkraut sometimes!
This is a comfort food. My mama was from very close to Ukraine and cooked very similar to this. rakott kelkaposzta
I’m sure it’s delicious too.
Thank you so much for this!
Thank you for sharing your grandma’s recipe! It looks so delicious and I can’t wait to make it. I love cabbage and this looks just perfect. 😋 I hope you are staying safe over there. Love from USA. ❤
Thank you!
Looks fantastic! I'm going to make this for sure..thank you!
Let me know how it goes!
I love your chanel. I could watch it all day.
Very good, took about two hours to make total and looked watery at the end, but upon stirring it the beautiful cabbage conglomeration came to life. Thank you.
So glad it worked out for you and you liked it!
Thank you!!! I've been craving golubki for a while now, but couldn't find cabbage big enough to make the rolls. finally decided to get a smaller head of cabbage and just try making up something :) Your recipe popped up at the PERFECT time and I love that rice is cooked with all the other ingredients. :) I am also born and raised Ukrainian, but in my family, we've only had rolled cabbage rolls, so when I told my mom today that I will be making them this way, she did have a mild shock LOL
Hahaha I can imagine. I recently made them rolled cause I had time with older kids now. But we always made them lazy way too. Both are good!
Thank you! Making this tommorow 😊
Hope you enjoy!
I cannot wait to try this!!!!
I hope you enjoy!
Made this tonight, so delicious!!
Hope you enjoyed!
Looks great I'm going to make this..
Let me know how it goes!
Wow amazing dish.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love cabbage cooked any wat .
Agreed!
Looks delicious
Thank you so much!
Ha-Ha!! Garlic...Ukrainian penicillin. That's what my dad used to say.
😂
This recipe has good ingredients, attention to detail such as seasoning & proper cooking/layering of the ingredients. I made up a recipe in my head once from memory of how my baba made them & it was so close to yours except I cooked the rice separate, which I will not do again as it was too difficult to incorporate & it was a missed opportunity for more flavor. Thanks for this post.
Thank you so much 🙂
She's like, "we don't have México or California ok?" Hahahaha so true we are spoiled out here in the Southwest!
We are!
My house smells so good right now!
Yay so glad :D
I really like the recipe. Can I try to make the same lazy cabbage rolls recipe in an instant pot? Thank you!
Yes please see this recipe ifoodreal.com/instant-pot-cabbage-rolls/ Sorry for late reply - technical difficulties.
I would like to try this way of making unrolled cabbage rolls, it will be a lot less work but I have a question, can this recipe be made in a slow cooker? of course cook the meat first and do the rest in the slow cooker! Your recipe looks so delicious, I will try this method next time! thanks for sharing ! Oh and by the way, why don't you try cooking on an induction cooktop? I have one, and I can tell you that it's MAGIC!!!
For slow cooker it might need different amount of liquid but you can try. Also it tends to burn so I would watch it. Not sure how long. You can see this recipe ifoodreal.com/instant-pot-cabbage-rolls/ if you have Instant Pot. Sorry for late reply - technical difficulties.
Thank you so much for this delightful recipe. I too become annoyed with the time and energy needed to prepare the cabbage leaves.
My pleasure 😊
Will you marry me?! Haha just kidding young lady... I've been watching your cooking channel for about 4 days now and as soon as I get time off of work I will be trying to prepare 3 of your dishes, this one, the borscht and some chicken recipe. THANK YOU!!!!
Haha I think one husband is all that I can handle JK. Please let me know when you try any of the recipes. Would love to hear how you like them! Cheers.
can you use and instant pot?
Yes please see this recipe ifoodreal.com/instant-pot-cabbage-rolls/
Please!!! TRADUCCION al español !!! 😃🎶🎶💖❤💖💗🎶🎶
Is this good if you're on a diet?
Sure! What’s not healthy about it?!
I may be missing it but I'm not getting how much of the ingredients and all the ingredients you're using.

@@ifoodreal I got it thank you.I can't wait to try it 🙂
Glory to Ukraine. Screw Russia. I am making this for my Italian celebration of St. Patrick's Day!
Hope you enjoy this recipe.
I don't understand one thing. You say your grandmother is Ukrainian and then you say you spoke russian a lot. Were other members of your family russian?
Correct. I still speak primarily Russian language especially since my husband is Russian. There is a lot of history between Russia and Ukraine and during Soviet Union eastern part of Ukraine including Central City Kyiv predominantly used Russian language as their main language of communication. Same goes for all former Soviet Union republics of that era. Since 1991 when Ukraine became an independent country, Ukrainian became primary language and more and more people started using it.
And yes we had a lot of family in Ukraine and in Russia. We have always lived peacefully...
@@ifoodreal I really don't understand how you can say that you had always lived peacefully. What about the Holodomor genocide when the Russians starved the Ukrainians? My father was a teenager when that was going on and he lost many family members from starvation. That the Russians forced on the Ukrainians. My Paternal Grandmother was raped in 1916 by a bunch of Russians soldiers in her hut, while her 3 year old child watched. I don't consider what my family experienced as the Russian and Ukrainians living peacefully.
