Day 11; Yalancidolma Stuffed vine leaves

This is a firm favourite in Greece and Turkey, but also throughout the Middle East.
The dish dates back centuries and was part of the rich offerings served up at the
Sultan's Court in the days of the Ottoman Empire.

For the rice stuffing, don't feel you have to follow the recipe strictly. Go with your
heart and your instincts - if you want to add your favourite herbs or nuts, do so.

Today's recipe is from Turkey, which is why I've given you the name of the dish in
Turkish.

Preparation

Heat the oil for the filling, add the onion and soften over a low heat for a few
minutes.

Add the rice and coat the grains evenly by stirring for two minutes more.

Add the water and the other ingredients for the filling. Cover the pan and simmer
until the rice is cooked. Remove from heat and let cool.

To prepare the vine leaves, lay each leaf vein-side up and place a heaped teaspoon of
the rice mixture near the stalk.

Fold the sides over and then roll the leaf up firmly to make a small parcel. Repeat
with each leaf until the filling has been used up.

Place the rolled-up dolmas side-by-side in a heavy saucepan, packing them tightly
together.

Add the lemon juice, oil and water and cover with a few opened vine leaves that you
had left aside.

Weigh the dolmas down with a plate or heavy utensil and cover the pan with a lid.

On a medium heat, boil the liquid for 10 minutes, then reduce further and simmer for
about half an hour.

Before serving, sprinkle with a few pine nuts and dried mint or fresh dill. Goes well
with a yoghurt dip.

The dolmas can be served warm or cold.

Ingredients

* About 20 vine leaves

* 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

* 1 cup water

juice of half a lemon

For the filling:

* 200g long-grain rice

* 3 tbsp olive oil

* 1 onion, finely chopped

* half tsp sugar

* 1 tbsp dried mint

pinch of salt and pepper

* 50g pine nuts (half of them set aside for decoration)
