Stuffed Grape Vine Leaves, a.k.a. (Zeytinyagli - Cooked in Olive Oil / Vegan version) Yaprak Sarma is a classic dish known throughout Turkey, but especially popular on the Aegean coast and this version is the vegan version without meat in the stuffing and cooked in olive oil.
This flavorful dish features juicy grape leaves stuffed with a mouthwatering mixture of rice, fresh herbs, and spices, all simmered in a rich olive oil sauce.
As a note and clarification, in Turkish "sarma" refers to dishes with rolled or wrapped vegetables, whereas "dolma" refers to stuffed vegetables.
