Pot au feu with stuffed cabbage rolls

The literal translation of "pot on the fire" refers to the way this old standard was originally cooked, in a huge cast-iron pot directly in the fireplace. Any combination of vegetables and meat can be used, and the French versions are as numerous as there are regions of the country.
