What is Dock leaf rolls with bulgur?

Dock leaf rolls with bulgur are a traditional Turkish home-style dish: tender leaves from a dock plant are wrapped around a filling based on bulgur, often with onion and herbs. Recipes vary from household to household, and the leaves bring a lightly tart, earthy flavour to the grain.

The rolls are usually cooked until the leaves soften and the bulgur is tender, then served warm or at room temperature. They work as a light main or as part of a spread with other vegetable dishes; a squeeze of lemon or a little plain yoghurt makes a good accompaniment. Bulgur and the leaves contribute fibre, while the filling is chiefly grain rather than a substantial source of protein. Use a modest amount of oil if you prefer a lighter dish.
