Step-by-Step Instructions
1
Start by preparing the cabbage leaves. Remove the tough outer leaves and blanch the cabbage in boiling water for 5 minutes. Then, remove the cabbage from the water and let it cool down. Once cooled, remove the leaves from the cabbage head and set them aside.
2
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef and pork, onion, carrot, celery, tomato paste, beef broth, vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until everything is fully incorporated.
3
To assemble the Rollmöpse, lay a cabbage leaf flat on a work surface and place about 1 tablespoon of the meat mixture in the center of the leaf. Fold the stem end over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll the leaf into a neat package. Repeat with the remaining cabbage leaves and meat mixture.
4
In a large pot, bring the beef broth to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Carefully place the Rollmöpse in the pot, seam-side down, and cook for 25-30 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender and the filling is cooked through.
5
While the Rollmöpse are cooking, prepare the pickled beet and mustard sauce. In a small bowl, combine the pickled beets, mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
6
To serve, place the cooked Rollmöpse on a plate and spoon the pickled beet and mustard sauce over the top. Serve with boiled potatoes and a side of steamed vegetables for a hearty and authentic German meal.
