Carefully remove the cabbage leaves from the head, taking care not to break them. Blanch briefly, rinse well, and cut out the tough center stalk, leaving enough room for the cabbage leaf to roll up later without breaking at the stalk. Drain. In the meantime, knead the tartar with sour cream, yogurt, rice, eggs, mustard, salt, and pepper. If you like it spicier, add a little more hot paprika or more mustard. Spread the cabbage leaves on a work surface and fill each with 1/8 of the minced meat mixture. Roll them into roulades: fold in the sides, roll them up, and tie them with string. Heat the oil in a large, preferably non-stick pot (the roulades should be able to lie side by side), add the roulades, and sear briefly on both sides. Top up with vegetable stock and cook for 30-45 minutes. For me, the savoy cabbage should be soft, not firm to the bite, but everyone likes it differently. Remove the roulades. Mix the starch with a little cold water, stir into the stock, and bring to a boil to create a nice, creamy sauce. Return the cabbage rolls to the sauce and serve. Potatoes go well with this, of course, but rice is also fine. Tip: to avoid any leftover savoy cabbage, chop the rest of the head, fry in a pan with a little oil, cover, simmer until soft, season, and serve. Without any side dishes, the cabbage rolls have 375 kcal, 12 g fat, 29 g protein, and 39 g carbohydrates per serving. This equates to 29% for Low Fat 30 (with potatoes and an extra portion of savoy cabbage, this is around 22%), and 7.5 P (without potatoes as a side dish). A delicious alternative to traditional cabbage rolls, which often have twice the values. They are just firmer than usual (due to the lack of fat in the mince).
