Lorac'S Stuffed Cabbage Rolls

Directions

1. 1
   ["Remove the core from the cabbage with a paring knife.", "Place the cabbage core side down in a microwave safe dish, add 1 cup of water and microwave on High power for 12 minutes.", "Rinse the cabbage with cold water until cool enough to handle.", "Remove the leaves that come off easily without breaking (you can cut away more of the core if needed to lossen the leaves). Set aside 3 or 4 of the tough dark green outer leaves for later.", "To remove the remaining useable size leaves, place the cabbage back in the microwave and cook on High for 5 minutes, repeat the cooling process.", "For the rice, bring 1 1/2 cups of water to a boil in a covered sauce pan, add the rice, stir, cover and remove from the heat.", "Let sit 5 minutes or until all the water has been absorbed, let cool to room temperature (if you can't get \"instant rice\"" you can substitute 3 cups of cooked rice).""
