- 2Take 18 whole leaves out of the cabbage head, cutting out any thick tough centre ribs. Set whole leaves aside. Chop the remainder of the cabbage head and spread it in the bottom of a casserole dish.

Chef tips
To make the leaves flexible for stuffing, remove the core and soak the cabbage in boiling water. Children will love helping you gently separate the leaves once they have cooled down a bit. For a hearty vegetarian alternative, replace the meat with black lentils and chopped walnuts. Add a splash of lemon and brown sugar to the tomato sauce for a traditional sweet-and-sour flavour.
