COUNTRY ROLLS

Steps:

• Put all ingredients in the bread machine pan.
• Select dough cycle.
• When the machine beeps, remove the dough from the machine and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Punch dough down and divide dough into 8 equal portions.
• Form each portion into a ball. Place rolls in a greased or parchment-lined sheet dusted with cornmeal. Dust rolls lightly with flour.
• Cover rolls loosely with plastic wrap and let them rest for 1 hour.
• Bake in a preheated oven ( 400º F ) for about 20 minutes. Serve hot from the oven.
• Note: If the rolls appear to be browning too quickly, tent it with aluminum foil for the final 5 minutes of baking.

COUNTRY CABBAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• In large pot of boiling salted water, blanch cabbage, one at a time, for 5 to 8 minutes or until leaves are softened. Remove and chill in cold water. Remove a few outer leaves and set aside.
• Working from the core end, carefully remove 12 leaves from each cabbage, returning cabbage to boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes when leaves become difficult to remove. Drain on towels. Pare off course veins; set leaves aside.
• Meanwhile, in saucepan, bring stock to boil; stir in rice. Cover and cook over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender and stock is absorbed. Transfer to large bowl.
• Meanwhile, in large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat for about 5 minutes or until crisp; drain off fat. Add butter to skillet, cook onions, garlic, red pepper, marjoram and thyme, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until onions are softened. Add to rice along with beef, parsley, salt, pepper and egg; mix well.
• Spoon about 1/4 cup (50mL) rice mixture onto each leaf just above stem. Fold end and sides over filling; roll up.
• Line 24-cup (6L) roasting pan or Dutch oven with one-third of the sauerkraut; sprinkle with one-third of the sugar. Top with half of the rolls, seam side down. Cover with another third of the sauerkraut and another third of the sugar. Repeat with remaining rolls, sauerkraut and sugar.
• Pour tomato juice over top. Arrange a few reserved leaves over top to prevent scorching. Cover and bake in 350 oven (180C)for 1 1/2 hours. Uncover and bake for 30 minutes longer or until rolls are tender. Discard top leaves.
• Serve with a dollop of sour cream.

VEGETARIAN SPRING ROLLS

Steps:

• Soak the rice noodles in cold water for 15 mins until pliable, then drain. Meanwhile, combine the cabbage, carrots, bean sprouts and the whites of the spring onions in a large bowl. Heat the sesame oil in a large pan and tip in the cabbage mixture. Cook over a high heat for 1-2 mins until the cabbage has wilted slightly. Add the soy sauce and Shaoxing wine. Cook until reduced slightly and add the drained noodles, coriander, and green parts of the spring onion, tossing well to ensure everything is evenly covered. Transfer to a plate and spread out to cool slightly.
• Once the mixture has cooled slightly, arrange a spring roll wrapper on your worktop in a diamond shape. Place a heaped tablespoon onto the middle of the pastry in a sausage shape. Bring up the bottom corner of the pastry and fold over the top corner. Bring over the pastry from the left side over the top of the filling and roll into shape, making sure the ends stay tucked in. Seal the final corner with a little water.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep pan to 180C, ensuring the pan is no more than two-thirds full. Cook the spring rolls in batches for 4-5 mins until golden. If you don't have a thermometer, drop a pinch of spring roll wrapper into the oil - it will sizzle when ready. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in a low oven while you continue to fry. Combine all the ingredients for the spicy dipping sauce in a small bowl, taste and add more chilli oil if you like. Serve the spring rolls with the spicy dipping sauce or some sweet chilli sauce.
