Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make frozen cabbage rolls in tomato sauce in a slow cooker? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. I use purchased cabbage rolls. but you can also cook them yourself. They are well stored in the freezer until the moment of cooking. It is not necessary to defrost them in advance.
Step 2:
Peel and rinse the onion and carrot from dirt in advance. Then grate the carrots on a grater, and chop the onion.
Step 3:
Pour a little vegetable oil into the bowl of the slow cooker and turn on the "Frying" mode. Put the prepared onions and carrots in a hot bowl. Fry the vegetables for 2-3 minutes so that they become softer and a characteristic aroma appears.
Step 4:
In a glass, mix water with tomato paste and flour. The presence of flour in tomato sauce will give it a light density.
Step 5:
Pour the resulting tomato sauce over the fried vegetables in a bowl. Bring to a boil. Add a little salt and spices to the sauce to taste. As a spice, I added a little ground black pepper and paprika.
Step 6:
Put frozen cabbage rolls in the sauce. Switch the slow cooker to the "Baking" mode" for 30 minutes. Close the lid and leave to cook. During cooking, cabbage rolls can be turned 1-2 times. After the specified time, the slow cooker will emit a sound signal, which indicates that the cabbage rolls are ready!
Step 7:
Transfer the finished cabbage rolls to a plate and serve hot to the table. Enjoy your meal!
Keep in mind that the cooking time and mode are indicated approximately in the recipe. All slow cookers work differently and even the same models of the same manufacturer may have their own characteristics. Before you start cooking a new dish for you in a slow cooker, carefully study the instructions for it, and then in practice try to cook dishes that are familiar to you first, and then new ones, choosing the mode and time individually for your own technique.
If you use ready-made spice mixes, be sure to read the composition on the package. Often, salt is already present in such mixtures, take this into account, otherwise you risk over-salting the dish.
For cooking, it is better to use filtered or bottled water that is neutral to taste. If you use tap water, keep in mind that it can give the dish an unpleasant characteristic taste.
