Pork, rice, onions and herbs rolled in Savoy cabbage leaves and poached in tomato juice.
I vacuum sealed them individually for the freezer.

I have had these all my life but I’ve never actually seen the word ha. For some reason it’s not what I expected, but also makes perfect sense.
These things are delicious. Those look great!
The Polish side of my family called these halupki. Basically the same, but I think they used ground beef and there was sauerkraut in the sauce.
Thanks! I haven’t had any for years because I can’t eat beef. I had always wondered if they could be made with pork but never tried it. I was at a farmers market where a Ukrainian refugee family was selling homemade Ukrainian food and the wind was blowing toward me. I told her I was going to eat one even if it hurt me and she told me they were pork. That sealed it.
As a Ukrainian, you can put almost anything into these haha. I have also tried a variation where instead of cabbage it’s stuffed peppers.
There’s nothing bad about the filling. You can put it anywhere. The only issue is that I use converted rice which I put in dry then hydrate with the tomato juice. If I used cooked rice I would stuff that stuff into anything.
