| 1 pack | 1 pack | Grape vine leaves |
| 17.5 oz | 500 g | Minced beef |
| 17.5 oz | 500 g | Cooked rice |
| ½ cup | ½ cup | Dried mint |

Cook the rice until ready, then cook the minced beef until fully browned. Mix the beef with the rice and mint. Take a grape leaf, and lay it stem towards you, add a small amount of the mixture about an inch from the stem in a horizontal sausage shape. Fold over the edges of the leaf, and then roll, starting with the stem end until you have a sealed sausage shaped dolmade. Continue rolling the leaves until you have finished the mixture. Lay the dolmades in a shallow oven tray and cook until very slightly browned (about 15-20 mins at 350 F / 175 C). Dolmades freeze well. |
