Dolmades
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cup rice
1 1/2 lb ground lamb
3/4 cup tomato sauce
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 tbsp allspice
2 tsp salt
2 tsp pepper
1 lb grape leaves
3/4 cup lemon juice
Directions:
1. Rinse rice with cold water and drain well. Place lamb in bowl. Stir in rice, tomato sauce and spices. Mix well.
2. Rinse grape leaves under cold water. Place grape leaf on a plate, vein side up and wide end towards you. Cut off stem if still attached. Put 1 tbsp stuffing crosswise at the widest point. Fold in sides of leaf tightly. As you work place leaves in a 5 or 6 quart Dutch oven arranging them side by side in layers.
3. Place a dinner plate on top of leaves to keep submerged and add water to cover. Cover oven and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to simmer and cook 25 minutes.
4. Add the lemon juice and cook until the rice is tender, about 10 more minutes.
