*Or use 3/4 lb. ground beef & 1/4 lb ground pork.

Saute meat and onion in olive oil.  Add the raw rice, parsley, 3
tablespoons of tomato paste, salt, and pepper and mix well.  Meanwhile,
cook the cabbage in rapidly boiling water until the leaves can be
loosened (about 8 minutes).  Drain.  Do not overcook.  Place a large
spoonful of the hamburger mixture in the middle of each cabbage leaf.
Roll and secure with a pick if necessary.  Place in a heavy pot and
cover with the tomatoes and the remainder of the tomato paste, mixed
with a little water.  Add sugar.  Simmer, covered for 1 to 2 hours.
Just before serving, if desired, add a little cornstarch to the sauce to
thicken.
