Greek Stuffed Cabbage Leaves (Lahanodolmades) step by step

Pour a little water over your rolls, a splash of oil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. If an ordinary pot is used, cover your rolls with a dinner plate turned upside down, to help them retain their shape while cooking. It is not necessary to do this if using a pressure cooker..
