I don't know what to call this dish in English, I guess could call it a stew??
In Armenian we call it, "Hashlama" try to pronounce that :chuckle:

Also at the very top of this photo you can see the stuffed grape leaves. Ground the meat by hand too, tastes better that way :), add spices, mix, stuff the leaves and cook, add sour cream on top to taste!!!

Grilled these up over charcoal. My favorite part of the lamb!!

are you talking dolmas? if so good stuff, what kind of spices do you use?
Title: Re: Dinner at the Armo residence
Post by: 762Armo on April 05, 2013, 12:35:44 AM: YES!! Dolmas are what I'm talking about, where have you had some before?
We actually don't use too many spices: salt, pepper, cilantro, and a bit of rice. I can't remember anything else. My mother makes these, by Grandmas recipe :)

Post by: viva_che1363 on April 05, 2013, 08:28:15 AM: my moms side is assyrian, and we make them all the time , but shes vegetarian so she leaves the meat out. we use rice, parsley, onion, paprika, and a few other that i cant remember right now. ill have to add some ground meat of some sort next time. we also mix some minced garlic in the sour cream sometimes. good eating for sure!
