Lazy cabbage rolls in sour cream sauce

Description

The cabbage rolls turn out very tender and filling, and the sour cream sauce will give them a creamy note. If desired, you can skip the preliminary frying and cook the cabbage rolls directly in the sauce on the stove or in the oven. It's best to use early white cabbage; however, if you're using autumn varieties that are tough, you should knead the cabbage until soft beforehand. You can use any spices and also add your favorite herbs. Tomatoes can be substituted with tomato paste or canned tomatoes in their own juice.
