If you have nasturtium growing in your garden, why not make dolma from it? Especially since there are no authentic restrictions on this matter - in the Caucasus, dolma is rolled not only from grape leaves, but also from mulberry and cabbage leaves, like stuffed cabbage rolls. Nasturtium leaves have proven themselves to be great: thin, but do not tear. And a slightly noticeable bitterness remains with them even after heat treatment, and does not disappear without a trace, as happens, for example, with arugula. To be on the safe side , put a layer of chopped tomatoes on the bottom of the pan, then the tender leaves will definitely not fry to it.

The recipe is taken from the book "Samarkand. Recipes and Stories of Central Asia and the Caucasus" by Caroline Eden and Eleanor Ford. "Stuffed grape leaves are popular from Central Asia to Turkey and from the Mediterranean to Eastern Europe. The filling usually consists of meat and rice, and cabbage or simply hollow vegetables can be used instead of grape leaves. In Tashkent, I tried an exquisite dolma with spicy meat, which did not contain rice. At the same time, dolma is more of a part of the snack table than a full-fledged main course.
