My first experience with this casserole was in Sweden at my Mother-in- laws and really really liked it. The Swedish name for this casserole is kålpudding – pronounced koal pudding – kål means cabbage.
Give this a try – I promise you will love it!
 

Fry chopped cabbage in 3 T margarine until partially wilted

Add the dark syrup and water to the cabbage

Water has evaporated and cabbage is now ready for the casserole dish

Combine ingredients with ground pork and ground beef

Add meat on first layer of cabbage

All 3 layers done and ready for the oven

Out of the oven!

Ingredients:
6 servings

Cabbage:

• 2 lb. whole cabbage

• 1/2 lb. ground beef
• 1/2 diced onion, saute in margarine
• 1/4 C cooked rice

Do this:
