They don't have Maple trees in Sweden??
Stateside, stuffed cabbage is usually cooked in and served with cream of tomato soup.
Its about as basic as it gets. Steam or boil whole cabbage leaves. While that's going on, make some normal white rice. Fry a 50/50 mix of ground beef and ground pork, add the rice near the end along with some salt and pepper ** (you don't have to drain the frying pan).
Spoon the meat-and-rice into the cabbage leaves and roll them up just like a.................burrito.
Place the rolls into a pot and add enough tomato soup to cover. Simmer until boiling.
**- Naturally, there are some variations to the basic recipe. You could add some minced or powdered garlic and fine-chopped herbs to the meat while its cooking. If you're making 20+ or so rolls, crack a raw egg into the filling and mix well just before you spoon it into the leaves. The rough proportions of the filling are 50% meat and 50% rice. Simmer the rolls and soup for 45 minutes to an hour so the rice absorbs some grease and soup as it fully cooks.
