1
Heat the oil in a pan, sauté onions on medium heat for 3-4 minutes until soft. Add lamb, garlic, black pepper and cook until no traces of pink color remain.
2
Add MAGGI Chicken Stock cubes, rice, dill, parsley, mint, pine seeds and water. Stir for 2-3 minutes until rice absorbs the water. Place aside to cool.
3
To stuff a grape leaf, place it on a working board with the dull side and the stem facing up. Place a teaspoon of the stuffing on the lower part of the leaf, fold the outside edges of the leaf towards the center and roll tightly into the shape of a finger.
4
Line the bottom of a saucepan with 2 layers of unstuffed leaves then place the rolled stuffed leaves above them alternating the direction of each layer.
5
Add the dissolved MAGGI Chicken Stock cubes; add enough stock to just below top level of rolls. Press with plate and bring to a boil, then lower the heat. Cover and simmer for 40-45 minutes until the leaves are tender and the rice is cooked.
6
Serve warm, garnished with lemon slices and sprinkle generously with their sauce.
