  • Birthdays and family celebrations are known for plentiful food and plenty of guests. Put an unusual but delicious dish like this whole cabbage stuffed with meat and porcini on the table, and you're guaranteed a hit. What makes it unusual is that the recipe uses the entire head of cabbage at once. Prep the cabbage first: peel off the outer layer of leaves, keeping only the ones that hug the head tightly. Cut out the core boldly, hollowing out the center around it — but carefully, so you're left with a kind of hollow shell. Finely chop the boiled mushrooms and add them to the ground meat. Chop up everything you scooped from the center and mix it into the meat too. Pack the mixture into the hollowed-out head, pressing it down so there are no gaps. Now remember those outer leaves we set aside — use them to cover the filling, tying the head with string to hold them in place. You'll also need a sauce: sauté the onion, grated carrot, and chopped tomatoes in oil, then add a couple of spoonfuls of ketchup and a little water. Take a pot just big enough for the head, pour in the sauce, add water to cover the cabbage, and simmer with the lid on, spooning the sauce over the top now and then. Serve the cabbage whole, then cut it into wedges like a watermelon and spoon the sauce over.
