Recipe Introduction

I used JD pellets and used quite a bit as I thought it would take smoke very well.

List of Ingredients

· ½ cup unsalted butter
· 1 lge onion, chopped
· 1 small cabbage 2lbs or 8 cups, thinly sliced
· 2 med carrots, shredded
· 1 tsp salt
· 1 tbs fresh dill
· ½ tsp caraway seeds
· 1/8 tsp blk pepper (I used much more)
· 4 ounces feta
· ¾ cup plain bread crumbs
· 6 phyllo sheets 17x12 (all I found here was much smaller)



Recipe

1- Cooking temp is 375.
2- In large deep skillet, melt 2 tbs butter, add onion; sauté till soft , 5 min. Add cabbage, carrots, and salt; cook until soft, 10 min. Remove from heat; stir in dill, caraway seeds, pepper, feta and ½ cup bread brumbs.
3- Melt remaining butter. Lay phyllo sheets flat on surface; cover with waxed paper and wet towel. Working quik, place 1 sheet separately on surface. Brush with some butter, top with 2 teaspoons crumbs. Repeat with remaining phyllo, butter, crumbs, stacking each on top.
4- Spoon cabbage filling in a strip 2 in in from long side and 2 in from short sides. Fold both short sides over filling; roll up from long side.
