How to cook rice for cabbage rolls
For cabbage rolls, it is best to use round-grain rice. It cooks quickly and is soft.
Before cooking rice, you need to prepare the minced meat, cabbage and other ingredients.
Rice is cooked as follows. Pour water into a saucepan, bring to a boil, add washed rice, cook for about 5 minutes.
The grains should be half-cooked. If the rice is raw, it will absorb too much of the sauce in which the cabbage rolls are stewed, and they will turn out dry.
After 5 minutes, throw the rice into a colander, cool, and form the cabbage rolls.
