What is "golabki"

n. traditional Polish cabbage rolls made with minced meat and tomato sauce.

Gołąbki is a cabbage roll common in Polish cuisine made from lightly soft-boiled cabbage leaves wrapped around minced pork or beef, chopped onions, and rice or barley, which are baked in a casserole dish and are usually served with a creamy tomato sauce.

Gołąbki is the plural of gołąbek, the diminutive of gołąb, meaning " pigeon", referring to the fist-sized or smaller roll's shape.

Gołąbki are often served during the Christmas season and on festive occasions such as weddings. They are also a featured dish for family reunions amongst Polish Americans.

Polish myth holds that the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania, Casimir IV, fed his army with gołąbki before a key battle of the Thirteen Years' War outside of Malbork Castle against the Teutonic Order, victory stemming from the strength of the hearty meal.
