10 cabbage leaves halved, ribs removed
1 pound ground beef
2 onions medium, finely chopped
5 1/4 ounces long grain rice
3 tablespoons fresh mint leaves chopped
3 tablespoons fresh dill chopped
3 tablespoons fresh parsley leaves chopped, plus extra to serve
4 cloves garlic minced
1/3 cup tomato paste
1 tablespoon butter

1
Cook cabbage leaves in boiling salted water for 10 mins, until soft. Drain then let cool.
2
Meanwhile, combine ground beef, onions, rice, herbs and garlic. Season. Place cabbage leaves on a flat work surface and spoon a heaped tablespoon of filling along base of each leaf, leaving space on the sides. Fold in sides and roll up tightly. Squeeze firmly to form a log.
3
Pack rolls closely together, seam-side down, in a wide, shallow pan with a lid. Whisk together tomato paste and 2 cups water. Pour over rolls. Dot with butter then cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 40 mins, until cooked through.
4
Transfer rolls to a serving plate. Drizzle with cooking juices, sprinkle with extra parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
