- You want chilli con carne to be rather dry, as its easier to stuff cabbage leaves that way.
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees C or 350 degrees F.
- Wrap chilli con carne in cabbage.
- Start by slicing out the thick vein from the cabbage leaves, making them flat and easy to roll.
- Place around 4-5 heaped tablespoons of filling on the thick side of a leaf and fold in sides.
- Roll up and place in an oven-safe baking form or skillet with seam side down.
- Repeat until the filling is over.
- Top with marinara sauce.
- Cover the form with a sheet of tin foil or a lid and put it in the oven for 30 minutes or until the cabbage is tender.
- Uncover and cook for 10 more minutes.
- If desired, add shredded Gouda after you uncover the skillet.
- Serve 2 rolls per person topped with a teaspoon of sour cream.
- Enjoy!
