Holubtsi

Holubtsi (Ukrainian Голубці) are Ukrainian cabbage rolls. The filling is mainly rice with a small amount of hamburger (unlike other East European cabbage rolls which are mainly hamburger with a small amount of rice). Cabbage leaves are steamed to make them soft and then the filling is added. The holubtsi are placed in a large pot, covered with tomato soup (or sauce) and baked. The word "голуб [holub]" in Ukrainian means "pigeon", and holubtsi are in the shape of a pigeon.
