GOLUBSTY (STUFFED CABBAGE) Loosely adapted from a Fiddler recipe. 1 head cabbage water for boiling 1 pound ground beef 1/4 pound (about 6 slices) white bread, crumbled 2 cups chopped onions 4 T. dried parsley salt and pepper to taste butter or margarine for sauteing (about 6-8 T.) • 2 cups water, vegetable, chicken or beef broth or milk or non-diary creamer 1 cup sour cream or substitute (optional) 1 16-ounce can diced tomatoes 1-2 T. sugar, or to taste (optional) Fill a large stock pot 3/4 full of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Wash the outside of the cabbage head and remove the core by cutting around it and about 1 2 inches into the cabbage. Place the whole head of cabbage into the boiling water and cook for 20 minutes. While the cabbage is cooking, pre- pare the stuffing. Combine the beef, bread, onions and parsley in a large bowl. Use your hands or a large spoon to mash the ingredients together. Add salt and pepper. Drain and allow to cool slightly in a colander. Separate about 12-14 leaves of the cabbage and spread the leaves on a clean surface and pat dry. Pound the tough vein in the center of the cabbage to soften it or cut it out completely. Divide the stuffing among the leaves, placing the stuffing at the stem end of the leaf. Fold the ends over the filling, tuck in the sides and roll the cabbage egg-roll style. Repeat with all the cabbage leaves. Preheat oven to 350F. Heat butter or margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the rolls, seam side down, in the skillet and brown one side. Turn the roll over and brown the other side. Place the browned rolls in a large ovenproof baking dish. Pour the remaining ingredients over the rolls and bake for 30 40 minutes until bubbly and very hot. Serve the rolls hot with sauce poured over them. Makes 4 6 servings. - - SIBERIAN PELIMENI Adapted from a Fiddler recipe. Dough: 3 cups flour 1 large egg 1/2 tsp. salt 1 cup water Filling: 6 ounces ground beef 1/2 cup minced onion 1-2 cloves of garlic, minced 1 tsp. salt 2 T. water or stock Sift the flour onto a clean, dry board or surface. Make a hollow in the center of the flour pile and break the egg into it. Add water and salt and quickly knead the mixture into a dough, kneading for 3 minutes (this can also be done in a food processor by putting the flour into the bowl of the processor and processing while adding the egg, salt and water until the dough forms a ball on top of the blade; remove the dough from the processor and knead for a few minutes more). Place the ball of dough into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes while you prepare the filling. Combine filling ingredients in a medium bowl. Mash together with your hands or a spoon until complete- - ly mixed. Divide the dough in half and roll out one-half on a clean surface that has been dusted with flour. Roll the dough very thin and cut with a round cookie cutter into 2 inch cir- cles. Place a small amount of filling, about 1 rounded teaspoonful (approximately the size of a small walnut), on one-half of a dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling side to make a puffy half- moon. Pinch the edges of the dough together well. Draw the pointed edges of the half-moon together to make small c c "Nr » purse. Repeat with remaining dough and filling. You can freeze the pelimeni at this point until ready to cook. To cook, Fill a large pot halfway with water and 1 tsp. salt.
