Lay out a cabbage leaf.
Place about 1/4 cup of the beef mixture in the center.
Roll it up, tucking in the sides as you go.
Pour a layer of sauce into the bottom of a casserole dish.
Arrange the rolls side by side in the dish.
Cover with the remaining sauce.
Cover the dish with a lid or aluminum foil.
