Directions
1. Put a large pot of water on the stove and bring it to boil. Then carefully, as not to cut yourself, cut the cabbage leaves off with a sharp knife and them to the pot and start simmering it. When the leaves would have softened enough to fold them without breaking remove them onto a platter. Handle with care, it will be hot. You will need intact cabbage leaves for rolling. Do not discard the cabbage stock.
2. While the cabbage cooks, you can start on the stuffing.
3. In a large bowl scramble the tofu and mix together with the rice, salt, pepper, 1 tbs paprika powder, marjoram and caraway seeds, onion and garlic.
4. Meanwhile you make the rolls you can preheat the oven to 200°C.
5. Place a small handful of stuffing inside a softened cabbage leaf and wrap it up like a burrito.
6. Place the cabbage rolls on a tray temporarily. When all the stuffing is gone you can begin the layering.
7. Scatter 4 cups of sauerkraut in a tall pan. Arrange the cabbage rolls on the top.
8. Add the pepper chunks and the tomatoes.
9. Scatter another 4 cups of sauerkraut over everything.
10. Add enough cabbage stock to cover the last layer of cabbage roll.
11. Place the pan in the oven, covered with foil and cook for 4 hours. Then remove from the oven and let it cool.
12. Pour the cabbage with the broth into a separate bowl and cover. Place everything in the fridge for the night.
13. The following day preheat the oven to 180°C, while you make a roux in a nonstick skillet from 4 Tbsp of oil and 4 Tbsp of flour.
14. Remove from the heat and stir in 3 Tbsp of sweet and 1 tsp of hot Hungarian paprika.
15. Stir the paprika roux into the bowl with the cabbage. Taste and adjust the salt.
16. Transfer half of the thickened cabbage back into the pan the cabbage rolls were cooked in. Lay the the cabbage rolls on the top. Cover with the remaining cabbage and the remaining broth.
17. Place in the oven for 2 hours.
Serve the cabbage rolls with vegan sour cream and rustic white bread.
