Bring a stock pot about half full of water to a boil. Add the cabbage and boil for a few minutes. Drain the water and rinse with cold water. Peel leaves off the head and set aside.
Mix meats, rice, onion, garlic, egg, 2 tablespoons paprika and 1 teaspoon thyme with a few tablespoons of tomato sauce together.
In a large pot combine tomato sauce, tomato soup and remaining spices with a little bit of water.
Scoop a palmful of meat mixture onto a cabbage leaf and roll like a burrito, place in pot with tomato mixture.
Simmer for 1 to 2 hours. Serve immediately, or let cool and refrigerate then reheat before serving.
