30 ml (2 tbsp.) butter
500 ml (2 cups) tomato juice
1 can, 796 ml (28 oz.), diced tomatoes  
45 ml (3 tbsp.) lemon juice

  1. Preheat the oven to 150°C (350°F).
  2. Cook the mushrooms in butter. 
  3. Pull off the cabbage leaves and blanch them in a large cooking pot with boiling salted water, for 3 to 4 minutes (to soften them).

  7. Stuff each cabbage leaf with 30 to 45 ml (2 to 3 tbsp.) of stuffing.
  8. Roll the leaves, folding the ends inwards to keep the stuffing in.

  10. Cover with aluminum foil and cook in the oven for 1 hour.
  11. Top with sauce regularly.
  12. Remove from the oven. Serve.
