MY OWN FAMOUS STUFFED GRAPE LEAVES
These are grape leaves, stuffed with a tantalizing mixture of rice, fresh dill, mint and lemon. 'Yum' is the only one word to describe these. These can either be a main dish or an appetizer, depending on your appetite. Serve with good crusty bread and a Greek salad, if desired.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, saute the rice, onion, dill, and mint for about 5 minutes, or until onion is soft. Pour in 1 quart of broth, reduce heat to low and simmer for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until rice is almost cooked. Stir in 1/2 of lemon juice and remove from heat.
- Take one leaf, shiny side down, and place 1 teaspoon of the rice mixture at the bottom (stem) end of the leaf. Fold both sides of the leaf towards the center, roll up from the broad bottom to the top, and place into a 4-quart pot. Repeat with all leaves, leaving no gaps as leaves are placed in pot (to prevent from opening while cooking). Sprinkle with remaining lemon juice and with olive oil.
- Pour chicken broth over all to cover grape leaves. Cover pot and simmer for about 1 hour (do not boil, because this will make the stuffing burst out of the leaves). Remove from heat, remove cover and let cool for 1/2 hour. Transfer to serving dish and serve.

What more can I say! This summer I want to try this grilled I'll let you know how it is.Well I did make it and I did enjoy it!I found the crunchy, creamy filling pretty good and the leaves gave it a chewy, salty texture. I made 25 stuffed grape leaves and used 1 tablespoon of the filling for each. I think less would make it just to leafy. I'd say a grown-up, tasty, healthy treat!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

- Boil the grape leaves for 5 minutes, then drain. This softens the grape leaves and make them easier to roll.
- Heat the olive oil in a pot over medium heat, add the onions with 1/4 tsp of salt, and cook for 10 minutes to soften. Add the walnuts, dill, lemon zest, saffron, and stir it in. Bump the heat up to medium high, and add the beef with 1/4 tsp salt. Cook the beef for 5-8 minutes until fully browned and cooked through. Add the chopped parsley, rice + water, and another 1/4 tsp of salt. Cover the pot with a lid and cook for about 20 minutes until the water has been absorbed. The rice should be al dente but not completely cooked. Remove the pot from the heat.
- Place a spoonful of filling into each grape leaf, and roll it up by bringing up the bottom, folding over the sides, and rolling it like a burrito. Place the stuffed grape leaf in the bottom of a pot. Repeat with the remaining filling and pack the grape leaves snugly together in a single layer. If your stuffed grape leaves must overflow into a second layer, that’s fine, just try to keep them tightly together so they don’t roll open during the final cooking. Pour over the freshly squeezed lemon juice and simmer on low heat, covered, for 30 minutes. You’re done with cooking! Note that if you taste a dolma right now, it will taste extremely lemony. This lemon flavor will dissipate in the next hour or so, so let the dolmas sit in the fridge for a few hours before eating. Enjoy!
