Steps

1 hour

1

Prepare the filling. Clean the onions and make a cut in each one without cutting all the way through. Place them in a pot, pour in enough hot water to partially cover (do not submerge), place a weight on top, and boil over medium heat for 15 minutes. Separate the onion layers and start stuffing them. The process is very easy. Arrange the stuffed onions in a baking dish while you prepare the sauce.
2

Combine all the sauce ingredients in a bowl. Mix with the spices and garlic, and add salt as needed.
3

Arrange slices of potato and tomato in the bottom of the pan, then place the stuffed onions on top. Pour the sauce over them. Cover with parchment paper, then foil, and place a weight on top to keep them closed. Cover the pot and set it on a heat diffuser or metal trivet over medium heat, then reduce to low and cook for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
4

Remove the foil and parchment paper. Clean the sides of the pan and garnish with fresh cilantro and pomegranate seeds, if desired.
5

Serve the dolma as a main dish alongside your other dishes.

Enjoy!
