If you have the stamina to make this dish you are in for a real treat as it captures some of the flavours of the Middle East. This is the Lebanese version, however, variations of cabbage rolls are made in many parts of Europe and especially in Hungary, Croatia and Sweden. Cabbage rolls are similar to dolmades made in Greece and Koupepia made in Cyprus but the vine leaves are replaced by cabbage leaves. In Sweden, vine leaf was replaced with cabbage as it was more readily available.
Cabbage rolls may be made with course ground beef, lamb or pork or a mixture of these. The lebanese version uses lamb and this combines perfectly with the flavours of the lemon and mint.
