    1/4   ts           Ground black pepper
  8                    Medium cabbage leaves

 * Vegetarian use vegetable stock rather than chicken stock.

 1. To make sauce: In a 2 quart saucepan over medium-low heat, saute
    the celery and onions in the stock for about 5 to 7 minutes.
    Add the tomatoes, basil, vinegar and oregano.  Cover and simmer
    for 20 minutes.  Set aside while you make the rolls.

 2. To make the cabbage rolls:  In a small saucepan over low heat,
    saute the onions, mushrooms and garlic in the stock for 3 to 5
    minutes.  Transfer to a large bowl.  Stir in the rice or barley,
    tomatoes, bread crumbs, soy sauce, parsley, curry and pepper.

 3. Blanch the cabbage leaves in boiling water for about 3 minutes,
    or until pliable.  Drain.  Place about 1/2 cup of mixture on
    each leaf.  Roll the leaf tightly to enclose the filling.

 4. Coat a 9x9 baking dish with no-stick spray.  Add the rolls, seam
    side down.  Spread 1 cup of the tomato sauce over the rolls.
    Cover with foil and bake at 400 F for 25 to 35 minutes.  Serve
    the heated cabbage rolls with the remaining sauce.
