Instruction

  • Peel your potatoes and carrot and cut them into small dice. Cute the Broccoli into smaller pieces. Cook the veggies until al dente/ not too soft.
  • Peel the Onion and Garlic and chop. Fry with some oil for a short time and keep aside.
  • Strain veggies (keep veg stock aside for later) and separate potatoes from carrot and broccoli.
  • Place potato to the pot and add the milk and butter. Heat up the pan and mash the whole content well.
  • Place the pot on the stove and cook, add the broccoli & carrots to the mash, season with turmeric powder, nutmeg, salt and pepper. You can safe the vegetable broth to make the sauce later on.
  • Add in half amount of the previously fried garlic and onion from step 2 (the other half will be required for the sauce).
  • Mix the stuffing well! Remove from the heat and keep aside to cool a bit.
  • Add some water to a pot, heat it up and place the cabbage leafs into the water. Allow them to cook for 8 minutes. Take them out of the water once they are soft and cool them shortly under cold water.
  • Place one large cabbage leaf on your working space and place a large leaf on top. Add 1-2 Tablespoons full of stuffing into the center.
  • Now wrap by pulling the side leaf parts into the center.
  • Then gently fold it in on top and down as well.
  • Keep on holding it together!
  • Take a kitchen twine to hand (about 2 foot/ 60 centimeter long). Hold on your parcel and turn it top side down.
  • Take the string underneath the parcel and take it back up, lock the two strings and take the string lengthwise.
  • Turn the parcel and lock again the 2 strings with each other.
  • Come back towards the other side and make a knot. It's just like parceling a gift!
  • Then place the parcels into the pan and fry on one side first.
  • Turn and fry the other side so that it gets some color.
  • Take the rolls out once finished fried and place the previously sauteed onion and garlic into the pan. Add the veg broth, the cream, the tomato paste and season a bit with salt and pepper and create the sauce. Cook for a 3 minutes until done.
  • Serve the Veg Rolls hot, topped with the sauce and some Parsley (or coriander to make it a bit Asian)
