Step 1
Rinse grape leaves under cold water, then lay them flat on paper towels to dry.
Step 2
Mix cooked rice, chopped dill and parsley, juice of half a lemon, salt, pepper, and 1 tbsp olive oil in a bowl.
Step 3
Lay a grape leaf shiny side down. Add 2 tbsp filling to the bottom third, fold sides in, then roll toward the tip.
Step 4
Repeat with remaining leaves and filling until all are rolled (you'll make 8–10 rolls).
Step 5
Slice tomatoes and lemon into thin rounds. Arrange rolls on a plate with tomato and lemon alongside.
Step 6
Drizzle rolls with remaining olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Serve at room temperature.
