Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    If using fresh grape leaves, boil them in water for 5 minutes, then drain and let cool. If using pickled leaves, rinse and drain.

  2. 2

    To prepare the filling, mix the parsley, rice, tomatoes, green onions, oil, spices, a pinch of salt, and half of the lemon juice.

  3. 3

    Stuff the grape leaves by placing some filling inside each leaf, folding in the sides, and rolling it up without pressing too hard.

  4. 4

    Place the potato slices at the bottom of the pot, then the carrot slices, and arrange the stuffed grape leaves in a circular pattern, with one end of each leaf touching the side of the pot and the other towards the center.

  5. 5

    Place a heatproof plate upside down on top and press down slightly, then place a pot filled with water on top to keep it from moving during cooking.

  6. 6

    Add water to the pot until it slightly covers the grape leaves, then add a little salt, the remaining lemon juice, and any leftover filling broth.

  7. 7

    Cook over medium heat until there is no water visible on top.

  8. 8

    To serve, invert the pot onto a serving platter after removing the plate and pot, so the potatoes are on top. It is best served cold.
