  1. Love your recipes , just tried your Egyptian salad it was fab . Love the intro music on this video also . Drowsy Maggie , an Irish reel in a stunning Middle Eastern style .

  2. this is my favorite meal, well this and stuffed cabbage – some hummus, fresh bread and olives, I hope it is my last meal on earth!

  3. I love stuffed grape leave with meat but I love the most the vegetarian stuff grape leaves it's so yummy

  4. You know what I do with the inside of the zuchini stuff I I put chopped onion in the pan with littel onion I keep stirring for about 5 min then I put littel water and curcumin about tea spoon and if there was rice and meat left from the stuffing I put it in the pot too it will.make a beautiful soup and so yummy specialy in the winter

  5. I love dolma my favorite especially with grape leaves. I’m Armenian and we make it too

  6. I made this already several times 🙂 and it’s yummy and easy to do… i like the taste of tomatoes more than the taste of lemon and garlic! But sometimes i forgot the recipe and returning in here again 😀 Thank you beautiful ladies!

  7. Do you boil jarred leaves? Do you put the meat in raw? I've seen some people cook the meat first, then roll them.

  9. Whenever I go to a gathering at work or something I like to make these. Alotta times people have only had dolmas. But Lebanese waraq enab mishi is the best

  10. Blanche, I'm in love.
    My Mom used to say : "the best way to a man's heart is through his stomach"!
    In Egypt we call these Wark Einnab.
    I think you're of Lebanese origin; in fact I'm pretty sure. You are BEAUTIFUL.
    Thank you for sharing this delicious recipe.
    Salamtik ya gamila.
    Allehi khalliki.

  12. Hi! love your channel. I'm chilean of palestinian origin and we don't put tomato in the grape leaves but we put it in the zuchini or eggplant. and we put curry powder in the filling as well. we are from beit jala (bethlehem area). where in Palestine is your family from? I've noticed the mahashi might change a bit from city to city

  13. We put them right onto the bottom of the pan and then fight over the slightly scorched ones. My Teita did this on purpose for us because we all liked it so much. 🙂

  14. Watching you and your mother eating the grapleaves made me crave some. Would putting your grape leafs in the freezer over night get them supple enough? I do this for cabbage leaves. What I love is there is no need to cut out the vein. Also, they keep the dark green color. Salam. <3

  15. Ok is the meat and rice cooked? Also what is the most usual meat in them it looks like ground meat?

  16. Great l discovered this recipe l have always wanted to do! Thanks so much l cannot wait to prepare it!

  17. Are we related? My Grandfather was Nicholas Shaheen from Syria and My Grandmother Mary Tannus Shaheen was from Lebanon. They moved to Canton, OH then Detroit, MI to California and finally Las Vegas, NV. Just curious because I love your videos. I’m Mark
