Comments
They were pretty good, but I would halve the onion, chop it more finely, and increase the rice by almost 100%. Also, it needs some seasoning in the meat...also, the brown sugar/lemon/Worcestershire made a thin BBQ sauce that just didn't belong. I have not edited the recipe to reflect these observations.
My mom use to make them but with out rice ( I can not bring my self to eat rice, let's just say the look of it reminds me of something that I can not handle. I have not had cabbage rolls in such a long time!
