1. 1

   Steam the rice.

2. 2

   While it steams, wash the courgettes carefully and chop fine, without peeling.

3. 3

   Also chop the onions and tomatoes.

4. 4

   If you are using canned tomatoes, reserve the liquid.

5. 5

   Heat the olive oil in a large skillet and throw in the chopped onion and courgettes.

6. 6

   Saute them until tender, then add the chopped tomatoes, the lemon juice, oregano, some salt, and lots of fresh-ground black pepper.

7. 7

   Mix this together with the cooked rice and your dolma (filling) is ready.

8. 8

   Roll them lightly around the filling, starting from the stem end and folding in the sides so the filling cant come out.

9. 9

   When all the filling is used up, line a baking dish with the rest of the vine leaves, arrange the rolled dolmades in it, very close together, and pour the liquid from the tomatoes, or some water, over them.

10. 10

    Cover tightly and bake for about 20 minutes in a moderate oven.

11. 11

    Serve very hot.
