  2. Slice the cabbage into ½ inch thick rounds and brush both sides with olive oil.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix the ground meat with onion, garlic, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, Worcestershire sauce, and optional egg.
  4. Form the mixture into patties that fit on the cabbage rounds and place each patty on top of its corresponding cabbage slice.
  5. Bake for about 25 minutes until the cabbage is golden and the patties are well-cooked.

  7. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top and serve hot with dipping sauces or a fresh salad.
