About this dish

Dolma is any of a family of stuffed dishes largely associated with Ottoman cuisine, typically made with a filling of rice, minced meat, offal, seafood, fruit, or any combination of these inside either a leaf wrapping or a hollow or hollowed-out vegetable. The leaf-wrapped type can be specifically known as sarma. Less commonly, both fruits and meat may also be stuffed with similar fillings. Dolma can be served warm or at room temperature and are common in modern cuisines of regions and nations that once were part of the Ottoman Empire.
