Wirsing

Wirsing is what you look for in a German store. Savoy cabbage in English, or Cavolo Capuccio in Italian. A good vegetable whatever you call it.

Here we turned it into cabbage rolls.
You just peel off some leaves in one piece. Cut out the main rib with a knife, and blanch for a minute. You can then roll them up with some sort of meat or vegetable mixture. (In the same manner as the Dolmathakia.)
These were filled with chopped meat and rice. Pour in a cup or two of broth, and into the oven.
It takes an hour or so. The Gruyere was added in the last ten minutes.
