Rice dolma is a flavorful dish originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, with variations found in Armenian, Turkish, and Greek traditions. It consists of grape leaves stuffed with a mixture of rice, herbs like parsley, dill, and mint, and often onions and spices such as cinnamon or allspice. Some versions include minced meat, while vegetarian dolmas highlight the aromatic rice and herb filling. Steamed or simmered until tender, dolma offers a nutrient-rich option depending on the recipe. The rice provides energy-boosting carbohydrates, while the grape leaves are a good source of fiber and antioxidants. Herbs add vitamins and minerals, and olive oil, often used in preparation, supplies heart-healthy fats. However, dolmas can be high in sodium if brined grape leaves are used, so moderation is key. This versatile dish can serve as a light snack, appetizer, or part of a wholesome meal.
