Suluguni in Grape Leaves
Appetizers • Georgian
Description
It’s best to use fresh grape leaves rather than salted or pickled ones. The suluguni cheese should also be purchased as low in salt as possible, with a creamy flavor predominating.
Ingredients
- Canned Grape Leaves 20 pieces
- Suluguni Cheese 15 oz
- Butter 5 oz
- Honey 5 oz
- Vegetable Oil 0 fl oz
- Garlic 2 cloves
- Paprika 1 tablespoon
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Slice the cheese into thin pieces and wrap each slice in a grape leaf. If one leaf is not enough to wrap a piece of cheese, take a second one.
Step 2
Mix buckwheat honey with crushed garlic and paprika.
Step 3
Wrap the cheese in leaves and fry it in a mixture of butter and vegetable oil, then serve with honey-garlic sauce. If you manage to balance the saltiness, creamy flavor, sweetness of the honey, and the spiciness, then when you cut a piece of the cheese wrapped in leaves, drizzle a few drops of the sauce on it, and taste the result, you will realize that at least a few seconds of your life were well spent.
