Let's Get Started
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the cabbage leaves and blanch for 2-3 minutes, until slightly softened. Remove from the pot and set aside.
- In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped mushrooms, onion, and garlic. Cook until the mushrooms release their moisture and the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, bread crumbs, egg, milk, salt, and pepper. Add the cooked mushroom mixture and mix well.
- Take one cabbage leaf and place a spoonful of the mushroom filling in the center. Fold the sides of the leaf over the filling and roll it up tightly. Repeat with the remaining cabbage leaves and filling.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place the rolled cabbage leaves in a baking dish. Pour the broth over the dolmars.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cabbage leaves are tender and the filling is cooked through.
- Serve the kåldolmar with lingonberry sauce and mashed potatoes.
