If you do make these you simply can not skip the fresh lemon and plain yogurt it just makes the flavor of the grape leaves explode!

Thank you Mrean for the beautiful photos of one of my favorite dishes!!! I like the suggestions you make for using potatoes in the bottom of the pot. I am afraid my potatoes would be over cooked because it takes a long time to get the filling in the grape leaves done, but I would like to give it a try sometime! Do you pre-cook your rice? I use raw rice. I think I will place a layer of chicken, and then potatoes then the stuffed leaves on top to cook them. I never heard of putting in the tomatoes either I will bet that adds and additiional nice flavor!

Potatoes are not cooked
And the rice is not underdone

Potatoes are delicious when absorbed Overstuffed grape flavor

thanks

I love stuffed cabbage. I have not had the grape leaves since I was a kid. Cathy, the use of yogurt is a nice twist.
Mream, I have never thought to use Mint with a dish like this but am very interested in trying a bit with tomatoes now to see if I like it.
Thanks for the wonderful recipes to you both.

Cathy, I make a Hungarian style stuffed cabbages and I layer cabbage rolls, then sliced potatoes, sour kraut, more cabbage rolls, sliced potatoes and kraut are the top layer. I make my sauce base again with V8 juice but spice it up a bit and add lots of Paprika. It is a Hungarian dish of course, lol. All the flavors work into the potatoes and makes the dish.

Wow that sounds good IC, I am a big fan of stuffed leaves of any variety. Tonight we had stuffed bell peppers again! There is a cabbage in my flower garden that is almost ready to harvest and I shall be stuffing away! I had one cabbage plant in my flower garden, as it was a gift to my 9 yr old from one of her teachers, I simply could not resist planting it, and believe it or not it made a beautiful addition to our flower bed as center plant!
