zoridream saysOh, these are really tasty, we use to make these too in Bulgaria, but we add a ground beef too for the filling. We first combine the onion, the rice, the ground beef and the tomato (fresh, peeled and chopped) into a deep saucepan with oil and a few drops water for and cook about 10-15 min, then we fill the grape leafs with this mixture. Used to be one of my favorites when I was a child! My mom was preparing them very often:) But these look delicious too! I can't wait to try them:):)
