Fantasy Cabbage Rolls

Fantasy Cabbage Rolls

1 lb lean, ground beef

1 medium onion, chopped

1 garlic clove, pressed

1 can (14 1/2 oz) whole peeled tomatoes

3/4 C Nishiki Rice (white rice, Uncle Ben's should be fine)

2 T Kikkoman Soy Sauce

1/2 teas oregano, crumbled

1/2 teas basil, crumbled

1/2 teas black pepper

3/4 lb green cabbage cut into bite-size chunks (about 4 C, packed)

Heat large frying pan over high heat. Add beef; saute 3 to 4 minutes, or until nicely browned. Add onion and garlic; saute 1 minute longer. Mix in tomatoes (undrained), breaking up with spoon, rice, soy sauce, oregano, basil, pepper and 1 and 1/4 C water. Arrange cabbage on top. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 30 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed. Stir cabbage into beef mixture. Cover and let stand 10 minutes before serving. Makes 5 servings, about 1 and 1/2 C each.

Eggplant Dip

Eggplant Dip

Bake the long skinny eggplant (not the American large eggplant) in oven until soft inside (about 20 minutes. Alternatively, grill the eggplant over a gas grill, rotating it around until the skin is completely charred, about 10 minutes.

Let cool.

Cut the eggplant in half lengthwise and scoop the pulp into a food processor. Process the eggplant, a small amount of fresh garlic, plain yogurt, tahini (cheaper to get at an international store but Krogers does have it), salt and lemon juice until smooth.

We like to dip pita bread or chips.

This recipe was given to me by a friend who is originally from Iraq. This is a native dish. I have discovered that most middle east and Orientals prefer the long skinny eggplant, not the American eggplant.
