Stuffed cabbage rolls in the microwave

Step-by-step cooking

   How to make cabbage rolls in the microwave? Prepare all the necessary products. You can take any minced meat: pork, beef, chicken and even mixed. It is better not to use ready-made minced meat, because it is not known from what it was screwed. I chose a piece of beef in the store and they made minced meat out of it with me. Rice is best rounded, so that it does not stand out particularly in the texture of the meat. Fresh cabbage, white cabbage, you can take young cabbage.
