  4. Take a blanched cabbage leaf, place filling near stem end, fold sides over, and roll tightly from stem end to top.
  5. Combine tomato sauce, minced garlic, and herbs in a saucepan over medium heat; simmer for 5-7 minutes.
  6. Spread sauce in a baking dish, place cabbage rolls seam-side down, cover with remaining sauce, and bake for 25-30 minutes.
