    1. Ukrainian fillings for Cabbage Rolls

    2. BUCKWHEAT FILLING:

    3. 2 cups medium buckwheat groats (kasha)

    4. 1 egg

    5. 4 to 5 tablespoons fat

    6. 4 cups boiling water or soup stock

    7. Pick over the groats and put into a shallow pan. Mix in the egg very thoroughly. Dry the mixture in a moderate oven (350 degrees F.) stirring frequently, until the kernels are separated and very dry. If desired, the groats may be very lightly browned. Do not scorch. Put the groats into a pot, add the fat, salt, and boiling water or soup stock. Bring to a brisk boil and cook until the surface water is absorbed. Season to taste. Cover and bake the buckwheat groats in a moderate oven (375 degrees F.) for about 30 minutes. Use this filling with cabbage or beet leaves.

    8. When the whole buckwheat groats are used, omit the egg. Mix the groats with the fat and brown very lightly in a moderate oven (350 degrees F.) stirring frequently. Lightly toasted buckwheat has a nut-like flavor. Avoid deep browning or scorching. Add the salt and about 7 1/2 to 8 cups of boiling water or soup stock. Bring to a brisk boil. Cover and place the buckwheat in a moderate oven. (375 degrees F.) for about 45 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed and the kernels are partially cooked.

    9. VARIATIONS OF BUCKWHEAT FILLING:

    10. 1 cup chopped cooked meat,

    11. 1 cup or more chopped cooked mushroomsIf a mushroom stock is available, use it as part of the liquid in preparing the filling.

    12. POTATO FILLING WITH BUCKWHEAT GROATS:

    13. 4 large potatoes

    14. 1 small onion, chopped

    15. 2 tablespoons butter

    16. 1/2 cup sour cream

    17. 1/2 cup medium buckwheat groats

    18. 1 cup sour cream

    19. 1 cup of sour cream over the holubtsi and bake in a moderate oven (350 degrees F.) for 1 1/2 hours. Serve hot with sour cream or with a sauce made by cooking a chopped onion in sour cream.

    20. RICE FILLING:

    21. 2 cups rice

    22. 2 cups or less boiling water

    23. 2 teaspoons salt

    24. 1 medium onion, chopped

    25. 4 to 5 tablespoons butter or other fat

    26. Salt and pepper

    27. Wash the rice well in a sieve until the water comes off clear. Add to the boiling water, stir in the salt, bring to a brisk boil, and let it cook for 1 minute. Cover, turn off the heat, and allow it to stand until the water is absorbed. The rice will be only partially cooked. Cook the onion in the fat until it is a light golden color. Mix with the rice and season to taste with salt and pepper. The filling for holubtsi should be well seasoned because some of the seasoning will be absorbed by the leaves, giving a flat taste to the finished product. Cool the filling.
