Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Over medium heat, melt the butter in a large, nonstick skillet. Add the shallots and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the apples and cook until soft, about 10 minutes. Add the pork and cook, breaking up the pork with the back of a spoon, until no traces of pink remain, about 5 minutes longer. Remove from heat and stir in the curry powder, salt, pepper and raisins.

  2. Step 2

    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the cabbage leaves and blanch for 1 minute. Remove the leaves and drain well. Blanch the scallion stems for 15 seconds; drain and set aside. Cut each cabbage leaf in half, removing the heavy center rib.

  3. Step 3

    Place a rounded tablespoon of filling about ½ inch from the rounded edge of each half-leaf of cabbage. Fold the sides in over the filling, fold the top over the filling and then roll it up. Tie the package with a scallion strip. Repeat with the remaining leaves and filling. Place the stuffed leaves in a steamer basket and steam until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
