    Recipe Description

    Classic Vegan Dolma encapsulates the rich tapestry of Mediterranean flavors, offering a delightful journey into the world of plant-based cuisine. This recipe reimagines the traditional dolma, or stuffed grape leaves, with a hearty filling of rice, pine nuts, currants, and aromatic herbs, all seasoned to perfection with lemon juice, olive oil, and an array of spices. Each grape leaf is meticulously rolled to encase the savory filling, creating a bundle of joy that’s as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate. Cooked slowly to allow the flavors to meld beautifully, these dolmas emerge tender and packed with flavor, ready to be savored as an appetizer, side dish, or a light meal on their own. Rooted in Mediterranean tradition yet appealing to the modern vegan palate, this dish celebrates the possibilities of plant-based cooking without compromising on taste or authenticity.

    Ingredients

    • 1 cup white rice, uncooked
    • 2 tablespoons pine nuts
    • 2 tablespoons currants
    • 1 onion, finely chopped
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 1 teaspoon dried mint
    • 1 teaspoon dried dill
    • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 1/4 teaspoon allspice

    Steps:

    1. Wash grape leaves in warm water; if using fresh, blanch them first.
    2. Prepare the filling by sautéing onion in olive oil until translucent. Add pine nuts and toast lightly. Stir in rice, currants, mint, dill, cinnamon, allspice, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
    3. Place a leaf shiny side down, add a spoonful of filling near the stem, fold sides over filling, and roll tightly.
    4. Arrange dolmas in a pot, seam-side down. Pour over lemon juice and water. Place a plate on top to keep them submerged.
    5. Cook over low heat for about 60 minutes or until tender. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
