To make these delicious dolmas, place the cabbage in a large pot of boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes or until slightly soften and loosen the leaves until pliable.

Place the meat, onions, bulgur, tomato and pepper paste, salt, flaked chilli, pepper, herbs, dried mint, olive oil and ½ cup of tap water in a large bowl.

Mix them well using a spoon. Prepare a Dutch oven by covering the bottom with the tough cabbage stems or any discarded leaves to avoid the dolmas burning.

Take a piece of cabbage and place it on a flat surface. Add about one tablespoon of the stuffing to the end of the leaf closest to you.

Roll up the cabbage leaf to completely cover the stuffing. Fold in sides as you roll. Gently squeeze the rolled cabbage leaves to secure them.

As you roll the stuffed cabbage, add them to your prepared Dutch oven or heavy-based pan to form layers of cabbage rolls.

Pour the tomato sauce over the stuffed cabbage leaves. Place the pan over medium heat and bring it to a boil. Gently simmer until the rice filling is cooked through.

Allow the stuffed cabbage leaves to rest for half an hour before serving the dish. Click on 👇 "learn more" for there full recipe and instructions.
