Instructions

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
  2. 2 Stir together tomatoes, zucchini, green onions, kosher salt, sugar, black pepper, oregano, and cayenne in a bowl to combine. Let sit for 15 minutes for the sugar and salt to draw out liquids from the vegetables.
  3. 3 Stir the tomato mixture; add parsley, mint, and basil. Crumble in feta cheese. Add flour and baking powder; mix with a spoon until combined. Batter should be relatively loose but will hold its shape on a spoon. If too loose, add more flour; if too dry, add some water until desired consistency is reached. Wrap the bowl in plastic wrap and let chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  4. 4 Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), or use a deep fryer.
  5. 5 Place heaping tablespoonfuls of batter in the hot oil; reduce heat to medium. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  6. 6 Flip once more and fry for an additional 30 seconds, if desired.
  7. 7 Serve warm or at room temperature.

Instructions

  1. 1 Place ground lamb, rice, 1/4 cups olive oil, mint, currants, pine nuts, salt, pepper, cumin, cinnamon, oregano, and egg in a bowl. Mix together thoroughly with a fork. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. 2 Gently unroll and separate grape leaves. Rinse in cold water to remove brine. Drain. Reserve broken or less-than-perfect leaves to line pot.
  3. 3 Place grape leaves on work surface with smooth side down (ribs of leaves up). Place a rounded tablespoon of lamb-rice filling near bottom-center of grape leaf. Fold bottom sections of leaf over mixture, fold over sides, and roll toward the top of the leaf into a firm cylinder. Don't roll too tightly or leaves may burst when rice cooks.
  4. 4 Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil into pot; line bottom of pot with 1 or 2 layers of reserved grape leaves. Place dolmas in pot by arranging them along the sides, then working toward the center to cover the bottom. Leave enough space between dolmas to allow for expansion, but close enough to hold their shapes when cooking. If necessary, stack another layer on top of the first so they all fit. Pour in lemon juice and 2 teaspoons olive oil.
  5. 5 Invert a small plate and then a larger plate over the dolmas to weigh them down while they cook and prevent them from shifting. Pour in hot chicken broth. Bring to a simmer, uncovered, over medium-high heat. As soon as liquid is heated through and starting to bubble (2 to 4 minutes), reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and cook 35 minutes. Remove plates and check for doneness. Dolmas should look a bit puffed up, and a fork should pierce them easily. If not quite done, continue cooking without the weights: cover the pot and simmer until rice is tender, 10 to 15 minutes longer.
  6. 6 Serve warm or chilled. Garnish with curls of lemon zest, if desired.

  1. 1 Combine blue cheese and cream cheese in the bowl of a food processor; purée until completely smooth. Transfer to a bowl; season with salt and pepper.
  2. 2 Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Lift your beater (or whisk if beating by hand) straight up: the whipped cream will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Fold whipped cream into blue cheese mixture, stirring until creamy with no lumps.
  3. 3 Fit a piping bag with a coupler and round tip. Drop piping bag into a tall glass and fold edges down around the glass. Spoon blue cheese mixture into the bag. Gather edges and twist together to begin piping as desired.
