   2      lg            Flavor cubes -- your choice
   1      md            Cabbage
   1 1/2  c             Uncle Ben's converted rice
   3      tb            Butter
   6      c             Water -- up to 8 c
   3      tb            Olive oil
                        Salt and pepper -- to taste
   4      oz            Can tomato sauce
                        Cheese -- grated, for topping
   2      cl            Garlic -- chopped

In a large pot, melt the butter in the oil and lightly saute garlic.
Chop the head of cabbage fine. About 1" wide 3" long. Put all cabbage
in with the garlic. Mix well to coat cabbage. Put 1/2 cup water in
with cabbage and partially cover. Cook until cabbage is tender and
lightly browned in spots.

Next add tomato sauce and mix well. Add rice and mix well again. In a
separate pot have the water and cubes on a med heat with cubes
disolved.

Gradually add this liquid while rice is cooking. Add a ladel at a
time and wait for it to be absorbed. Continue until rice is cooked.
Make sure to mix often to stop from sticking. Season with salt and
pepper and serve hot with grated cheese. This can be used as a main
dish, first course or as a side dish.
