Stuffed grape leaves, also known as dolma, are a popular dish in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Balkan cuisines. These delicacies feature tender grape leaves wrapped around a flavorful filling of rice, herbs, and optionally ground meat. The vegetarian version often includes ingredients like rice, olive oil, onion, parsley, and dill, while meat-based variations may include lamb or beef. Rich in vitamins and minerals, grape leaves themselves provide antioxidants and fiber. Olive oil, a key component, contributes heart-healthy fats, and herbs like parsley and dill add anti-inflammatory properties. However, some versions may be high in sodium depending on preparation methods or the use of canned grape leaves. Served hot or cold, stuffed grape leaves are nutritious and satisfying, offering a balanced blend of carbohydrates, healthy fats, and protein. Perfect for appetizers or main dishes, they're a cultural staple with both flavor and health appeal.
