These delicious flavor-packed dolmades with ground lamb, garlic, lots of herbs and rice wrapped in wonderful grape leaves all smothered in a silky lemon sauce. This is one of the recipes that my grandparents and mom would make for all of our big celebrations and holidays. These are a Greek version, but there are so many variations of the recipe with different fillings and flavors. If you haven’t had freshly made dolmades you need to give them a try. This delicious recipe just so happens to be from the my cookbook, so if you have a copy, crack it open and bake along with me!

I am Persian we call those dolmeh دلمه we also make this with cabbage, eggplants and bell peppers
My childhood neighbor from Lebanon would make these and gift them to my family. She was the sweetest old lady named Hilwa. Very fond memories of her and this food 🙂
I made these with ground chicken and added a mixture of water, cumin, garlic, lemon juice, tomato sauce, salt, pepper and lemon slices over rolled grape leaves, plate on top and cooked for about 50 minutes. It was delicious! thank you for a very tasty version!
Learning more about you !❤ did you say Greek? I thought it was Middle Eastern. Or is that Dolma ? 🤔 maybe the same thing ? Love your recipes and respect your work 🙏🏽
You can just do it with the rice!! We' re not using meat always, it's optional! It's the rest of the things and the cooking that make ot delicious!
Dolma is Turkish. Even Dolma word is Turkish which means Filled and it comes from Doldurmak verb which means To Fill.
This recipe looks good ! I’ll give it a try !
I’ve eaten various versions of dolma , sarma, dolmades. Including meat and vegetarian versions all delicious! But I must state in my humble opinion all recipes made with fresh new season grape vine leaves have the best texture and flavour! Especially leaves from the sultana vines ! If you can grow or obtain fresh leaves do so ! It’s well worth the effort and time
😂😂😂😂😂
Can you use couscous or amaranth instead of rice?
Idk why but these are kinda almist like sarmale ;-;
By the way this best kurdish traditional food
Dolma = Stuffed… eg Capsicum, Tomato, Zucchini…. But what you have here is not Dolma, it's Sarma = Wrapped.. eg Grape leaves, Spinach leaves, Cabbage leaves.. This is Altay people's food.. eg Turks, both Turkic and Turkish
Loved your method. I didn’t realize that lamb was just too strong. Maybe next time I can combine beef. I love your little boy. He’s so cute.
I'm not sure if I would trust this person around young children. The food looks fine, but I don't trust this man.
That kid needs help!! He was terrible at roll those things!!! So he was sucking on his fingers then touched THE FOOD!!!! YUCKKKKY!!!!
Vegetarian version would be a Turkish yalnji recipe it’s so good and yummy
Bliss bars ?
Thank you very much.
I love it very much. Since I travel to greek and get to eaten
them. Thank you again.❤
The rolling in this recipe is not good, totally weird
I prefer just
Mint and dill for a cleaner taste
I am 100 💯 % certain that the dolmades I buy are vegetarian dolmades but I mix them with other things on a plate 🍽, such as stuffed olives 🫒, Provolone, Mozzarella & Feta cheeses, cherry tomatoes 🍅 or ripe vine tomatoes 🍅, zucchini & baby cucumbers 🥒 Sometimes I also add creamy coleslaw on the side & that's a FULL HECTIC meal for Uncle Dr. HooRoo ❗️🙄😳
Very interesting take on dolmas
I’ve eaten hundreds of vegetarian dolmades in my life, but I’ve never had them with a lemon sauce. I will definitely try that next time.

So funny because this is a very Middle East dish and they don’t use alcohol
❤❤❤❤❤
and…. of course if you don't have a copy of the book where the recipe is listed, quit the vid & go to one where they list the ingredients
I only like him with the meat, the rice and the grape leaf, no tomatoes or tomato sauce
Loved the minute with your kid! Hey is the sauce like a Hollandaise? Great video. Fellow YouTuber. New Sub here!
Its Turkish dude
Dolmada❌
Sarma✔️
My Syrian granny made this every thanksgiving and Christmas. Now my cousins and I follow the tradition 😁
I've only had these once but i think they were a bad batch – it was very bitter and tough – it left me thinking i was not supposed to eat the leaf – but now i know, they didn't cook it correctly!
Omg is preppy kitchen Greek?! My heart!💙
Αδελφε… σα παραδεχομαι
You lost me at olive oil and medium high heat. Way to ruin olive oil.
I’m Iraq and this is one of my favorites food
Happy dance!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊
Looks delicious. I had seen canned stuffed grape leaves. I'm going to try a can or two. Just wondering how to make them more flavorful.
I just love the fact that you didn’t edit the footage or use some crazy pot that is anti spill that no one else has when you were pouring the sauce into the pot
I just love your recipes. I am from the Middle East originally. The way we do grape leaves are two ways, with meat and meatless. With meat it just rice, beef of ground lamb, ghee, and salt, pepper, and the seven season spices we buy from any middle eastern store. Meatless, it’s rice, tomatoes, parsley, extra virgin olive oil, and a touch of nutmeg. When it starts to boil, sprinkle some olive oil on the top, this softened the grape leaves and we let it cook for at least two hours covered on very low heat. Melt in your mouth. I would love o send you a big jar of the seven spices.
Well gay away.
In Romania we call it sarma (sarmale) ❤️💛💙 and more often we use cabbage leafs.
Whoa, are you greek? I just discovered the channel and I was surprised to see you had Dolmades 😂 love from Greece file ❤
