Gołąbki (Polish pronunciation: [ɡɔˈwɔmpki] ⓘ) is the Polish name of a dish popular in cuisines of Central and Eastern Europe, made from boiled cabbage leaves wrapped around a filling of minced pork or beef, chopped onions, and rice and/or kasza.
Gołąbki are often served during festive occasions such as weddings, holidays such as Christmas Day, and other family events.
They can also be prepared using a number of various fillings instead of meat or rice, including mashed potatoes, boiled eggs, barley groats and others. In some variants, the cabbage leaves may sometimes be substituted with vine leaves or fermented instead of fresh cabbage leaves.
