Lazy Cabbage Rolls in the Oven
Boil the rice in salted water for 8 minutes until partially cooked, then drain in a sieve. Finely shred the cabbage, lightly salt it, and massage it with your hands to soften it. Finely chop the onion, grate the carrot, and sauté in oil for 5 minutes. Combine the ground meat, cabbage, rice, egg, half of the sautéed vegetables, salt, and pepper, and knead well. Using wet hands, shape 10–12 patties and place them in a baking dish. Mix the tomato paste, sour cream, hot water, and the remaining sautéed vegetables, then pour over the patties. Bake in an oven preheated to 190 °C for 35–40 minutes until the surface is golden brown.
