About Kapsarullid

Kapsarullid are Estonian cabbage rolls enclosing a savoury meat-and-rice filling. Nami-Nami’s classic rendition has soft cabbage leaves around a substantial centre of minced meat, onion, garlic and rice.

Butter enriches the rolls and their light cooking juices, while black pepper supplies warmth. Optional dill adds a fresh herbal flavour, and cream offers a richer finish.

The rolls form a closely arranged dish, with their filling contained in individual leaf parcels. A little sour cream is also offered at the table, providing a tangy accompaniment to the savoury rolls.
