Directions
Place grape leves briefly in a pan of warm water to separate them, then drain on paper towels.
Combine all other ingredients. Place grape leaf vein side up, with the stem toward you.
Put a mound of rice mixture in the middle of the leaf (about 1 rounded teaspoon to 1 rounded tbsp, depending on the size of the leaf).
Fold over sides and roll up leaf. Layer the rolled leaves in a large saucepan (3 quart) placing them side by side and close together.
Press with a heavy heat proof plate that fits inside the pan.
Add enough boiling water to cover leaves.
Cover and simmer for 1½ hours.
