Ingredients: -1 Medium Cabbage -1 ½ cups ground beef or ground lamb -1 medium diced onion - 1 cup short grain rice - Garlic, you need few whole garlic cloves peeled and some minced. Optional, you may use whole head of garlic with the peel in between the layers - 2 to 3 teaspoons of the following spices: Cumin, Caraway, Coriander, Cinnamon, Salt and Black Pepper. You may all the above spices or omit whichever you do not like to use. -Cooking oil -1 cup Lemon juice -1 cup water or as needed Directions: -Wash and drain rice -Mix up the ground meat, diced onions and rice; add cooking oil and the spices (Cumin, Caraway, Coriander, Salt and Black Pepper) set aside. -Prepare your cabbage leaves by separating the leaves from the cabbage head. Cut away stems, save them and use them at the bottom of the pot. -Boil the leaves a few at a time in boiling salted water until they are soft enough to roll. -Prepare stuffing of meat, rice, salt, pepper and the above spices -Cut the leaves to form a cigar size roll. Place stuffing on each leaf, fold sides toward center and roll up from bottom into a cigar shape (similar with stuffed vine leaves). Do not over stuff; make sure that you have space for the rice to expand inside the cabbage rolls. -Press together firmly. Place layer of the saved stems -Place the whole garlic heads in between the rolled Malfouf. -Sprinkle with salt, caraway and cumin in between layers. Add water, boil then simmer for an hour to an hour and a half. Half way through the cooking time add crushed garlic on to. Let simmer. Simmer gently until rice is tender in barely enough water to cover. Invert your pot in a platter -You may serve this dish hot or at room temperature, depends on your personal taste.

Dear Ikbis team, Thanks for featuring my Stuffed Cabbage video on your first page!! Thanks a lot…i appreciate it. :)
Rehab, Thanks for your comment!
i actually was going to add steak in the bottom of it but decided not to. i sometimes make it with only vegetarian stuffing and it turns out really well that way too. of course i use olive oil when i cook it vegetarian. Thanks for coming by, watching and leaving a comment.
Nice, I prefer malfoof over dewalie (dolma / stuffed grape leaves), Even though i don’t make either one very much, but when I do make Malfoof, i like adding a cut up chicken on the bottom of the pot :) Thnxs SUMMER
Huda, Thanks for watching and liking my cooking video!! there are many other cooking videos online by me, check them out, i am sure you will like them! ;)
Thanks for your info about the ads, i was afraid it will appear on my blog too….thanks again.
Summer
great video and it looks so deliciouse thanks alot
about the ads,they only appear on ikbis so you dont have to fear that they will appear on your blog when you embed the video there
looking forward to more of your videos
Neddal, You are most welcome!! glad you like my videos! I have to cook because i have a family to feed! but making the cooking videos is much more fun that cooking itslef! You can also check out my cooking blog at: http://cooking-the-easy-way.blogspot.com/
i have plenty of recipes there and hope you can learn how to cook from watching and reading when you have to!
Now, this is for George, How come my other videos that i have posted in the past couple of weeks have not been seen while this video that i have posted only TODAY has been watched so many times??? just wondering!! you guys at ikbis need to promote your site in a big way! Best of luck :)
George , i have never cooked in my life , i also don’t like kitchen , and I hate all the programs related to food , but when i saw Summer’s videos i like them too much , i like the way she is presenting them and i am even planning to put all her videos in separate file in my favorites .
I added a comment about the music bcoz i don’t know how to cook and i don’t know if u can add lemon from the start or crushed garlic like what u r saying .
The food looks tasty and I told Summer about my opinion in her food in a previous comment on one of her videos .
Many girls are asking me here , how i cook my food and if i can teach them how to cook Arabic food because they like it so much , but i feel embarrassed always in my answers , so i found the answer for them here in ikbis and i told alot of them about Summer , and i told them that she is writing ingredients in English so they will not face any difficulty in understanding , and they were so much happy , and they told me that they will check them after exams and see her cooking .
so it is not my hobby at all that’s why i said that her choice of songs is attractive for me to see her video .
Thanks Summer
Triplem, Thanks
yummy…looks good
George, the whole purpose of my videos is to post the recipe in a fun way to watch….people who do not like to cook care about the music, so they leave comment about it. the recipe is good, great actually, i usually burn the bottom and it tastes so so yummy!!
i like it very sour, so i add lemon at the start, a little bit, and half way through the cooking i added more…the whole head of garlic with the peel on is really nice, it comes out tasty and very soft…try it, and let me know how you like it…..ra7 ted3eeli!!! ;)
Thanks for your comment!!!
by the way, mabrouk the new ads on the videos, but i do not like them!!!!
I hate it when people leave comments on the music! What about the food people?! Anyway, it looks delicious, the stems taste great when put underneath, they get so tender :)
So do you put lemon from the start? I thought it should come later.
I also never tried it with crushed garlic, i should try it out, looks interesting!
Thanks
Thanksk Neddal! glad you enjoyed it! :)
Summer choice of songs is always attractive ;)
Thanks Solid-Snake for your comment! I like that song too, but your music was nice too, not fitting for this recipe, will be using it for others though!
as for the meat recipes, you can always substitute for meat with non meat dishes.
cool song better than the one i sent :)
thnx for the video, me myself i hate anything with meat, my mum is going mad from me :)
Thanks dndara for watching and leaving a comment. i hope the recipe works out for you when you try it. good luck!
