Cabbage Rolls are naturally low carb, but absolutely delicious. Although many cultures have their own versions, this version is inspired by the Chinese versions (it is slightly different from the Polish version in that it has no sauce). Try these Cabbage Rolls with their pork stuffing, but feel free to substitute out for turkey. Then, let me know how they turned out for you down in the comments!

INGREDIENTS:
- 1 head of cabbage
- 1 lb ground pork (or turkey can work as well)
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 inch of fresh ginger, minced (is that a valid measurement for ginger? lol)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 green onions (thinly sliced)
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp sweetener (I used erythitrol, you can use sugar or another substitute)
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp coriander seed powder
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- white pepper

HARDWARE
- Steamer basket ([ Ссылка ] to get one from Amazon*)

DIRECTIONS
1. Cut the stem and the root of the cabbage and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, mix the ginger, egg, garlic, green onions, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, coriander, red pepper, white pepper, and sweetener.
3. Add the pork and mix until it is well combined.
4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let sit in the fridge for 30 minutes.
5. Bring a pot of water to a strong simmer and then gently lower the cabbage into it.
6. Let the cabbage cook for two minutes. At this point, the leaves should come off easily as they are now flexible. Remove the leaves and set aside. Get as many as you can off the cabbage core!
7. Once the leaves have cooled enough to where you can handle them, use a paring knife (or another small but sharp knife) to remove the stems by essentially shaving it from the leaf. This will allow the leave to be rolled. Set aside.
8. Remove the meat from the fridge and prepare your work station.
9. Working with one leaf at a time, cut it into a semi squarish shape and make a small slit (about a ½ inch) into the base of the stem. Place the meat about an inch in from that slit and fold the leaf over the meat. Then fold in the edges as you continue to roll. If there is too much excess leaf, remove it with a knife. Set aside.
10. In a large saucepan, add water and bring to a boil.
11. Add the cabbage rolls to a steam basked and place into the saucepan. Cover, and let cook for 10 minutes. Check to make sure you have enough water to actually boil, or you could burn everything including the pan.
12. After 10 minutes, remove the cabbage rolls by working from opposite ends. Replace one, then replace the one directly across from it - this will prevent the steam basket from tipping and covering you in boiling water.
13. Let the Cabbage Roll cool, then enjoy!
14. Enjoy!

The sauce I dipped the cabbage roll in was made from:
- the left over ginger
- soy sauce
- fish sauce

Just add enough and adjust to taste!
