Golubtsy is very popular Eastern dish. In original recipes it’s meat and rice stuffing into cabbage or grape leaves. I made it with collard greens and kale. This recipe is popular variation, it’s name mean lazy, easy goluptsy. Chopped cabbage is added in meat and rice mixture. Some make it really easy: they don’t make meatballs and just fry it as is.
It’s chicken stew with vegetables. I serve it with mini pierogi and green beans on side and it was still low calories dinner. It’s not real French Julia Child’s version, but I adapted simplified recipe from MyRecipes.Com.
Great dinner dish, low in calories, high in taste. I used store bought potato gnocchi. Recipe adapted from American Heart Association Site, so it’s good for heart too.
Pelmeni, now, is a traditional Russian (fast) food. They are very well kept frozen and can be purchased at any Russian store, but, of course, the home version is always better. I made my pelmeni with salmon filling, but, traditionally it’s meat.
