The Yunus Emre Institute’s Turkish Cultural Center in Moscow held a workshop on preparing sarma—grape leaves stuffed with rice, herbs and spices.
The event was part of the “Getting to know Turkish culture” series organized by the center for students of its Turkish language courses. Under the guidance of instructors, participants chopped herbs, prepared the filling and wrapped it in grape leaves.
