"This stuffed cabbage roll is a traditional Macedonian food that can be served at family dinner parties. You can add some chopped chorizo to the meat mixture to add a smoky flavor. Alternatively, you can use a pork-chicken ground meat combination for a lighter flavor. You can add aromatics such as cloves, thyme, parsley, and even rosemary if you like herbs. They all work well in this recipe."
