This recipe is one that I remember my Grandma Olah making often. She usually served it with sour cream on the side and fresh seeded rye bread.—Paul Joseph Yuhas, Denver, Colorado

1 pound uncooked ground pork
2 large onions, finely chopped
1 cup cooked rice
4 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 can (29 ounces) tomato puree
1 package (32 ounces) sauerkraut, rinsed and drained

Directions

Place ribs in two 13-in. x 9-in. in baking pans. Cover and bake at 325° for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, remove core from cabbage. In a large kettle, cook cabbage in boiling water for 2-3 minutes.

Remove thick center veins from the leaves. In a bowl, combine the beef, pork, onions, rice, garlic, salt and pepper. Place about 1/2 cup on each cabbage leaf. Fold in sides; roll up, starting at an unfolded edge.
Drain ribs. Spread 1/4 cup tomato puree and 1 cup sauerkraut in Dutch oven. Layer with ribs, 1 cup sauerkraut, cabbage rolls, remaining sauerkraut and remaining puree. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook over medium-low heat for 45-55 minutes or until ribs are tender and a meat thermometer inserted into cabbage rolls read 160°. Serve with a slotted spoon or thicken juices if desired. Yield: 12 servings.
