Lazy cabbage rolls in a roaster
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. For making lazy cabbage rolls, the same ingredients are used as for regular ones, but the shape and taste are different. I especially love this dish not because it's easier to prepare, but precisely because of its rich, aromatic flavor. The finished dish can be served at the table.
