Step 1
Bring a pot of salted water to boil. Core the cabbage and carefully peel off 8–10 leaves, then soften them in boiling water for 3 minutes until pliable.
Step 2
Drain leaves on paper towels. Mix cooked rice, dill, parsley, feta, salt, and pepper in a bowl until combined.
Step 3
Lay one cabbage leaf flat, place 3 tablespoons rice mixture near the base, then roll tightly, tucking in the sides as you go.
Step 4
Repeat with remaining leaves and filling. Arrange rolls seam-side down in a steamer basket over simmering water.
Step 5
Cover and steam for 8 minutes until heated through. Meanwhile, whisk yogurt with lemon juice and a pinch of salt.
Step 6
Serve rolls warm with yogurt sauce and steamed vegetables on the side.
