Topic: Dolma


  
  Dolma - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dolma, strictly speaking, is a stuffed vegetable, that is, a vegetable that has been hollowed out and filled with stuffing.
There are two categories of dolma: those filled with a meat mixture (ground meat (kıyma), tomatoes or tomatoes paste, onion, rice, butter and spices) and those with a rice mixture (rice, olive oil, pinenut, bird grapes, some herbs and spices).
The meat dolma is a main-course dish eaten with a yogurt or avgolemono sauce, and a very frequent one in the average household.
