Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In medium bowl mix rice, lamb, salt, pepper, allspice, cinnamon, and oil.
  2. Place a heaping teaspoon of lamb stuffing on the dull side of the grape leaf. Begin rolling in a jelly roll fashion. After the first roll, tuck in the ends, and continue rolling. The roll should be firm, but not too tight because the rice expands as it cooks. If it is too tight it might burst. Repeat with the rest of the leaves and filling.
  3. In a 2 1/2 quart pan arrange rolls in compact rows. Add enough water to just below the top row of rolls. Place a small plate on top of the rolls. This is to weigh them down so they will remain intact while they cook. Bring the pot to a boil, reduce heat. Cover and let simmer 45 minutes or until leaves are tender. Most of the water will have absorbed at this point. Uncover, add lemon juice, and cook for 5 minutes longer. Remove from heat and transfer to serving platter. Serve with yogurt.
