Step 1

Saute onions with oil until translucent, then add garlic, tomato and red pepper paste and saute for a few more minutes. Add chopped lamb, salt, pepper, cumin and sumac and saute for 10-15 min until ready.

Step 2

Parboil brown rice, I am using Instant Pot on a standard rice setting.

Step 3

Spray bottom of the baking spring form with oil, layer sliced tomatoes and lemon slices on the bottom. Make a first layer with grape leaves, leaves should cover the sides and the bottom. Add a layer of rice, add some mint and parsley, a layer of meat and layer again with grape leaves. Repeat this two more times. Make holes with the toothpick on top of the dish.

Step 4

Move the spring form inside the pot. Pure 1 cup of boiling water and lemon juice inside the spring form, cover the pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 40 minutes. If all water evaporates before it is cooked, you might need to add more boiling water in the process.
