   Peel the ginger, finely chop and add to the meat mixture; add eggs, spices and mustard, then mix in the finely chopped cabbage.

6. 6.

   Fill the pudding mold lined with cabbage leaves with the mixture. Press down slightly, cover with the remaining cabbage leaves and seal the mold with its lid.

   Place the pudding mold on an inverted saucer inside a pot, pour boiling water up to halfway, close the pot and cook over medium heat for about 1 hour, covering the pot with a damp cloth.

8. 8.

   Remove the pudding from the pot, let it rest for 10 minutes, then transfer to a plate and serve.
