  10. Take one of the cabbage leaves on a flat surface
  11. Cut away the hard central vein,the piece on the left, is way too small to be stuffed, (we will keep these small pieces aside to place in bottom of cooking pot.)
  12. Here is another leaf, I cut in the middle then side, veiny parts are very hard to roll, so try to get rid off those
  13. I placed walnut size of filling at the base of each leaf.

  15. Fold the edges over and roll again

  17. Making sauce : 1 tbs paste and boiling water mix, add some salt and lemon juice
  18. Pour over dolmas. Cut the butter in small pieces and place on top.
  19. The liquid should come at least halfway up the top layer, need more water? Then boil it. Place a heavy plate over leaves. First, high until water boils, then low heat, cook about 45 minutes.
  20. I had left over grape leaves, I used them too. Serve with Turkish yogurt
  21. I have stuffing mixture left, before I put it in the fridge I added one egg and made balls, then I sprinkled some flour and shook the tray, to preventthem to stick eachother, and kept them in the freezer about 1/2 hour.
