A hearty winter dish made by hollowing out the center of a pumpkin, stuffing it with a ground-meat rice filling, and baking it. The pumpkin's natural sweetness is balanced by the spiced ground-meat filling, and it is served hot at dinner tables.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the pumpkin

15 min

Wash the pumpkin and cut off one end like a lid, remove the seeds and hollow out the center.

2

Prepare the filling

10 min

Mix the ground meat, rice, grated onion, tomato paste, black pepper and salt thoroughly to prepare the filling.

3

Stuff the pumpkin

5 min

Fill the pumpkin with the filling you prepared and close its lid.

4

Bake in the oven

55 min

Place the stuffed pumpkin in a baking dish, add water to the bottom, and bake at 190 degrees covered with foil for 45 minutes, removing the foil for the last 10 minutes.

Reminder

Important: prick the pumpkin's skin in a few places with a fork before putting it in the oven, otherwise steam can build up and crack the skin while cooking. Caution: cover with foil while baking, then unwrap the foil for the last 15 minutes to lightly brown the top.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Adding a few currants to the filling complements the pumpkin's sweetish nature, giving the dolma a balance of both sweet and savory.
