Notes

For best results, choose a cabbage that is firm and heavy for its size, ensuring freshness and a tender bake. Adjust the seasoning to taste, and feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick. If you prefer a creamier texture, consider adding a bit of cream or sour cream to the beef mixture before baking.
