7-10 Tbsp salt, pepper
1 (approx. 500 g) baby pointed cabbage
1 Garlic clove
1 red chilli pepper
1 Onion
250 g Potatoes
4 TABLESPOONS + some olive oil
1 piece(s) Cinnamon stick
1 can(s) (425 ml) chunky tomatoes
50 g Raisins

Directions

1
Cook quinoa in 200 ml boiling salted water according to the instructions on the packet. Clean the cabbage. Carefully peel 14 cabbage leaves. Blanch in boiling salt water for about 2 minutes. Quench cold and dab dry.
2
Cut out or flatten the thick vein of the leaf (see tip). Cut the rest of the cabbage in half, remove the stalk and cut the leaves into fine strips.
3
Peel and finely chop the garlic. Clean the chillies, halve lengthwise, remove seeds, wash and chop finely. Peel onion and cut into thin strips. Peel and wash the potatoes and cut into small cubes of approx. 1⁄2 cm.
4
Heat 4 tablespoons of oil in a saucepan. Sauté garlic, chilli and cinnamon in it. Put aside about half of the seasoning oil together with the cinnamon stick. Fry the onion in the remaining seasoning oil. Fry the potatoes and cabbage strips for about 3 minutes.
5
Stir in tomatoes and raisins. Simmer for about 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in quinoa.
6
Preheat oven (electric cooker: 225 °C/circulating air: 200 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Oil a baking tray. Place 1-2 tablespoons of quinoa filling on each of the upper third of the cabbage leaves. Whip the top and side edges of the cabbage leaves over the filling.
7
Roll up from top to bottom. Place on the sheet with the seam side down. Fill 14 roulades in total. Cook in a hot oven for about 20 minutes. Take out and sprinkle with the rest of the seasoning oil. Shawarma is delicious with it.
