Unlike cabbage rolls, this soup recipe goes together quickly but provides all the wonderful cabbage roll flavours. It is so delicious!
In a stock pot, heat the butter or oil over medium heat. Cook the onions until soft. Add the caraway seeds, garlic and celery. Cook until celery is just tender.
Add the ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until no longer pink.
Stir in tomatoes in their juice and tomato juice. Bring to a simmer and add the cabbage, rice and dill. Cook until the cabbage and rice are tender. If the mixture becomes too thick, add additional water.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
About this recipe
Unlike cabbage rolls, this soup recipe goes together quickly but provides all the wonderful cabbage roll flavours. Like cabbage rolls, I like to serve this hearty soup with a dollop of sour cream. A slice of toasted rye bread goes well, too.
