Serving suggestion

Yaprak sarma are vine leaves rolled tightly around rice, herbs and pine kernels, cooked gently in olive oil and served cold. Small, neat and very moreish.

Where it comes from

Sarma means wrapped, and these little parcels were refined in the kitchens of the Ottoman palace. Cold dishes cooked in olive oil, known as zeytinyağlı, are a whole category of Turkish cooking, especially along the Aegean coast.

How we make it at EFES

Vine leaves stuffed with herbed rice and pine kernels, served with thick yoghurt.
