Ingredients
* Cabbage, fresh, 1 head, large (about 7" dia) * Jennie-O Extra Lean Ground Turkey, 16 oz * 1 large egg, lightly beaten * Onions, raw, 1 medium (2-1/2" dia) * Parsnips, 1 parsnip (9" long) * Ginger Root, 3 slices (1" dia) * Garlic, 1 clove * Brown Rice, medium grain, 2 cups (cooked) Sauce: * Soy Sauce, 3 tbsp * Honey, 2 tbsp * Sesame Oil, 1 1tsp * Garlic, 1 clove
Directions
Makes about four servings for main course, about 8-10 for appetizer

Bring water to boil in large saucepan, and boil cabbage for 10 min

While the water/cabbage is boiling,
Mix with clean hands: turkey, egg, finely chopped onion, finely grated parsnip, cooked brown rice, fresh ginger, garlic, and (soy sauce to taste)

When cabbage is done boiling, remove from boiling water and rinse with cool water until you can handle it
Discard the outer leaves if they are damaged
Gently remove and stack individual leaves. If the inner leaves are still stiff, you may need to boil the inside part of the cabbage for another few minutes to soften them up

Place a generous spoonful of meat mixture into each leaf, fold edges to make a secure packet and place, folded side down, on a baking sheet. The inner leaves will make smaller packets than the large, outer leaves. Try to put rolls of similar size together on the same sheet to avoid overcooking the smaller rolls

Bake at 350 for about 25-30 min or until internal temp is 170

While rolls are baking mix remaining soy sauce, honey, sesame oil and garlic in a small pan over medium low heat and reduce a little bit

Pour sauce over rolls and serve

    Why is the calorie count so high on the servings in this recipe? I don't believe it was calculated correctly, but I could be wrong. I am going to try making this. Thanks for posting! - 12/28/10
