Soften the vine leaves in boiling water for 1 minute, then drain.

Roll the stuffed leaves tightly and arrange them in the pot.
Cover them with a plate and cook for 35 to 40 minutes.
Let them rest for 10 minutes, then serve.
💡 Tip: Do not roll the leaves too tightly, because the rice expands as it cooks.
