Step 1: Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Step 2: In a shallow saucepan, melt butter and then sear each side of your sausages until crispy and golden brown.
Step 3: Place a lid on the pan and let them cook while preparing the cabbage leaves.
Step 4: After removing outer leaves from the head of cabbage, blanch each piece by dipping in the boiling salted water using a set of tongs to fish them out.
Step 5: The leaves will turn a bright green and become limp.
Step 6: Once sausages are done, remove from pan and place on a plate allowing them to cool enough so they can be handled.
Step 7: Meanwhile, pour 1 cup of bone broth into the hot pan to deglaze.
Step 8: Be sure to scrape the pan well to release any brown bits stuck to the pan. Add paprika, mustard, salt and pepper.
Step 9: Simmer and stir until thickened.
Step 10: Once the sausages are cool enough to handle, wrap each sausage in 2 overlapping leaves of cabbage tucking the ends (similar to wrapping a burrito).
Step 11: Place back in the same sauce pan, and continue to cook for another 20 minutes covered, adding water as needed.
Step 12: Flip them halfway through so that the sauce coats both sides.
