Stuffed grape leaves with rice and olive oil are a familiar Turkish-style dolma: tender vine leaves wrapped around a rice filling and gently cooked with olive oil. Depending on the household or region, the filling may also include onion, herbs, or a little dried fruit. The leaves bring a pleasantly tangy note, while the rice is soft and the olive oil gives the dish a rounded, savoury finish. It is commonly served cool or at room temperature, as part of a mezze spread or alongside other dishes; a squeeze of lemon is a natural partner. Mostly rice with some fat and fibre, it works well as a light lunch or side. Pair it with salad, or keep the filling and cooking oil modest for a lighter version.
