I was taught to use ground turkey instead of ground lamb (for lower fat).... but either way, you take the ground meat, mix it with uncooked rice. once its all mixed together, take small amounts (about the size of your thumb) and place them in the center of a grape leaf (you can usually get these in armenian or mediterranian grocery stores.) Lay them out in a deep pot, with enough water (use also the brine from the grape leaves jar for a nice salt flavoring) to mostly cover the bottom layer. (so its sort of a combo of boiling and steaming them.) Squeeze lemon juice over the lot of them, cover and cook. it takes a while but they shoudl begin to plump when they are done (because the rice will expand within the meat). I cant remmber how long to say cook, because it's always been more of a site/taste test for me. Best of luck!
