Dolmadakia
Also known as: Ντολμαδάκια
Greek vine leaves filled with rice, onion and mint, finished with lemon.

About Dolmadakia
Dolmadakia are small Greek vine-leaf rolls filled here with an aromatic rice mixture. This profile follows the national tourism organisation recipe and fixes its mint and fresh-leaf choices.
Rice and softened onion make a mild, savoury filling while mint adds a cool herbal note. Olive oil lends richness, lemon brings brightness and a little pepper sharpens the finish.
The rolls are compact green cylinders with tender, slightly glossy vine leaves wrapped closely around soft rice. They hold their shape while remaining moist and delicate rather than firm.
