Greek here! I've been following you for more than a decade now - I think it's thirteen years - and you never ever cease to amaze. Oh, and of course I'm here for the recipes as much as I'm for the comfort and the puns.

I had an Iraqi woman cook this for my lunch after I'd taken her to her OBGYN appt back in the late 90's; she used smaller yellow onions and did not cook them first, just cut them carefully and separated the layers. The filling expanded at the same time the onion cooked. And she added LOTS of lemon to the broth. It was lovely to watch her work; she spoke no English, her hospitality spoke volumes.
That’s called Dolma (دولمة ) and it has similarities to this recipe but is quite different. They use lots of lemon, dill, pomegranate molasses, baharat, etc. Very flavorful.
Soğan (Onion) Dolması (Stuffed) is a common cultural heritage of Dolma (Stuffed) vegetables culture of Greek/Balkan/Turkish/Azerbeyjani/Turcic/Arabic/Armenian cuisines. The recipe and it's variations appear across cultures within all our georaphies as we all share a common cultural background. Not only historically, but also our way of cooking resemble so much alike. Thank you for giving a chance to this tasty recipe in your channel. As all can see, food is a major way that can bring cultures together. I hope everyone who tries them likes as much as we all do.
That's what I answered @CITY, hereabove! Drop the flags and claims, and let's share our recipes AND ONIONS, for Pete's sake! I 'M sure you' ve always known these stuffed with lamb, and cinnamon - scented, but further south, they'll put cubeb pepper and chillies and blow your brains clean, from crying😂! Since I don't like onions, especially when they 're stewed (unless they vanish, like in pasta alla Genovese), I' ll pass this one, and wait for an okra - bamies inspiration... ❤ From Paris
The longer you cook stuffed onions, the better. I usually cook them for 3 hours at least, on low heat (150 c). I also make them with pomegranate sauce, which turns out delicious! Also, make sure to "wrap" them tight around the filling, and place them tightly next to each other so that they don't open up during cooking:)
@dianeladico1769 I mix pomegranate molasses with some honey (if you have grape honey available, even better!), dijon mustard, fresh garlic, a squeeze of lemon, some chopped fresh mint, rosemary and parsley, black pepper, salt, baharat/Lebanese 7 spice, and if you have it - urfa pepper. I then add some of the cooking water from the onions. The sauce shouldn't be too runny, but not too thick either, as it could burn with the honey in it. This also goes very well with lamb mince, if you want to put some in the filling. Hope you enjoy it!😃
I first had these in Iraq from the mother of a friend of mine. They cook it on the stove (not oven) and use a thinned out sauce of Tomato and Pomegranate molasses. The resulting onions were almost candy sweet with a nice sharp tart flavor. One of the best things I ever ate in my life.
john , thanks for all the wonderful dishes over the years. i used a lot of your cooking tips and recipes when i was cooking for my mother for the last 10-15 years. she passed recently and man i know she would of loved these. ima end up making a batch for me and my sibling to eat. thanks again mate
I so appreciate that you explain your mishaps and how you would correct it. Very generous of you to do so. Cooking is creative and sometime art needs tweaking. I bet these are delicious! Thank you for all your effort and sharing.
I hadn't seen you for a while and your stuff is always my stuff. You always hit my sweet spot with food I love. Once you added the raw mince to the mix I knew I was home.
@@undisclosedmusic4969Hi, Greek here (and no Greek keyboard OR spelling skills, to chime in 😅!), so as I was about to comment, no wonder I couldn't make head or tail of this name ? It's just not Greek in the first place ! You would be so kind as to put our good ol'Chef John at ease, he'd stop barking up the wrong tree 😂...
Once you notice that Chef John is a perfectionist it becomes funny to watch. I knew when he dropped that tiny piece of beef at 0:29 it wouldn't take him long to notice and pick it up.
I do the "brown a little bit, put the rest in raw" technique for a lot of ground beef recipes. It works a treat in anything you're going to slow cook, like stuffed rolls or sauces. I think I stole the idea from one of Kenji's bolognese recipes. It's great because you can push the browning even further and get lots of fond without turning all of your beef into sawdust by the time it's all done cooking.
Thank you for showcasing this less-known recipe, it's very regional and not found everywhere. I've never made it and now you have demystified it for me! A few remarks from my side would be: - Yellow onions are OK, I'd use white onions if I could find them. I think there's a specific variety that's traditionally stuffed, I don't remember from which region. - I'd go for cinnamon and cumin rather than mint and oregano - Pine nuts and raisins are also a good addition here - More wine maybe? For me it instinctively evokes flavours of stifádo, so I'm taking it to this direction
I’m new and something about listening to his voice while watching a delicious meal being made makes me very happy. Instant subscribe! I can’t wait to make this. ❤🍽️
Thankyou for this recipe! I'm going to try and cook this for my buddy at work. His wife and family is Greek. I always cook him something cool to experience. With all the culture's foods. More Greek recipes!:)
Looks very delicious, excited to try this since I have all the ingredients on hand, but for me a bit too liquidy but that's an easy fix, use less water.
Thank you man. I love food and I'm trying to get into cooking. This isn't something people typically see when brought to a gathering. This looks awesome, can't wait to try it out!
My wife's dad is from Baghdad. We do something similar to this whenever we make dolmas, except the beef is finely chopped or fresh ground on a coarse setting, stuffed into the onions raw and the flavors include some extra items like sumac and citric acid.
I try cooking dishes like this for pro football games, since they take the longest out of all the American sports. Realistically I don't start prep early enough, the cooking happens during the game, and if I'm lucky I'm able to eat it before the end and while hoping it's a close score or even better if it goes to overtime. Reminds me I should put another TV in the kitchen. And after spending ALL THAT TIME on a recipe I appreciate Chef John's humorous humility (humor-ility?) to show issues eating the final product -- as if I were the one who cooked it. I hope he considers putting a compilation of hard-earned bloopers like this, especially those not so scripted, over all the years. Thanks from one John to another
I've done these before - but I smeared the stuffing all along the onion and rolled it up like a swiss roll. I don't remember them taking that long to cook - but it's been a while! Very delicious in any case!
You might well have stewed them on the stove-top which, IMO, might need a little less time. I might be wrong, but onions not being a "fleshy" veg', the oven's purpose-roasting- seems waisted on them. Besides, we would use smaller, finer farm-market onions in Greece, I believe, not those enormous forced babys !
Hi John. Looks delicious! The mother of my greek brother-in-law also parboils the rice for about 10 mins and overlaps the rolls. But she preheats the oven to 425 deg in stead of 375 deg. It then takes about 40 mins with cover and 30 mins without.
Greek tip of the day...Most mothers or grandmothers here in Greece, always precook/brown the minced meat when making stuffed vegetables. One exception may be when making stuffed cabbage leaves where a mix of beef and pork mince is used and because they boil in the pot under a heavy plate to keep their shape, you can "overcook" them, so to speak, without drying the interior, which needs to be firm but juicy and moist. Other than that great recipe. Approved! Salantourmasi (stuffed onions) is originated from Kastellorizo in Greece. Its a very remote island that has only 180 permanent residents but has some unique dishes. Also, the intonation is on the "ntou" syllable, So its not Salantourmàsi but Salant(oú)rmasi...Greek captain flying away....
These look delicious, I don’t think you make mistakes, I think you work out the kinks so we all get the best results. So thank you for doing that for us.
Love your recipes and humour. I was looking for a pancake batter recipe ( I know kinda boring) a few years ago when I came across Food Wishes. Keep it up, great stuff.
I've made stuffed onions few times. I remember it was fun to make, fun to eat, I freezed them half made. Maybe it's a time to repeat the experience. Now I'll watch your onions👍👍👍
I’ve been waiting for cool weather to make these. I saw a version made by a Turkish cook on Instagram and here you are, Chef, teasing me with yours. I bet some cabbage used to line the bottom of the baking dish would result in extra tastiness even if it’s not authentic. 🤤
@chef john... you know you've just basically made middle eastern dolma! .. better yey, the onion dolma.. usually it goes with (stuffedf) tomato dolma, eggplant dolma and grapeleave dolma.. 'But simmerd in a pot to create an amazing sauce in stead of in the oven.. so this is a simpler, probally a lot less flavourfull version of dolma! love it
Been making this one for decades, my Mom did stuffed peppers as a kid. Later on I experimented and stuffed many other veggies, used two stuffings and the other is mostly cream cheese & bacon.
...and cry your eyes out for an extra while! OK, I know they're blanched, but this sounds like that British Conran lady going "life's too short to stuff a mushroom !", which of course she's wrong about : stuffed mushrooms are delicious. It's onions I don't care enough for 😂!
Greek here! When my gran made a (huge) pan of stuffed vegetables, she always had stuffed local shallots along the tomatoes, bell peppers, aubergines, zucchini and zucchini flowers. She used the inside of the scalded onions in the stuffing though, and instead of beef, she added currants and pine nuts. The first two weeks of august is a fast, so no meat.
I made these and they were super tasty, i did feel like they were missing a little something but I'm not sure what. Maybe ill add a little more cayenne and some rosemary next time. Thanks for the recipe!
Salantourmasi! That's a deep cut of a recipe, even for Greek standards, but it's a popular choice in local mageireia (home cuisine restaurants) and I personally love it as well
Looks beautiful 🧅🍅 and I like stuffed vegetable recipes, stuffed capsicums and tomatoes are my favourite, now I have 1 more to add thank you Chef John.🧅
In Turkey, Gaziantep we have a similar dish called Onion Kebab or "Lazy Wife Dish". Onions cut in half, stuffed with meatballs roasted in an oven and pomegranate syrup to add sweetness while also preventing it from drying.
As a middle eastern we used to stuffed the raw onion by the raw short grain rice (Egyptian rice) mixture. We called it Dolma or Mahshy ❤️❤️ Bon appetite ❤️
Those look amazing, I'm going to give them a whirl sometime. I might switch it up and do a Taco version. Taco ground beef with cheddar cheese and fiesta style rice n tomatoes for the filling. Bake some cheese on top and serve it with Mexican crema.
This looks delicious. I made something similar from Galloping Gourmet video that had cinnamon and nutmeg without the tomato. I think this will be more to my taste. It was good but this looks great.

Why are Turks ALWAYS in the replies of anything Greek. Get over yourselves and settle down. You all come across as insecure and pathetic every time.
Much more refreshing than the usual "IT'S NOT GREEK IT'S TURKISH"
I was just thinking the same going over the comments 😊 Greetings from Serbia!
Yep, even the name of the dish sounds so similar to Sogan(Salan) Dolmasi (tourmasi) 😊
I actually ate often at a Greek restaurant in Minnesota. If you visited there, you would be the Paul Bunyon of cooking your onion.

Anyone who has ever eaten a barbecued onion knows that a stuffed and roasted onion cannot be anything but delicious and wonderful.
Ok, ya got me! It sounds absolutely delicious but, what is a BBQ onion?? 🧅
@@IngaHicksI’ve never heard of them either. Guess I’ll go see what google knows about bbq onions🙃
@@saltycrowI believe it is just an onion cooked on a grill.
An onion skewer is the most absurdly delicious simplest thing you can do in a grill and is perfection
The longer you cook stuffed onions, the better. I usually cook them for 3 hours at least, on low heat (150 c). I also make them with pomegranate sauce, which turns out delicious!
Also, make sure to "wrap" them tight around the filling, and place them tightly next to each other so that they don't open up during cooking:)

@dianeladico1769 I mix pomegranate molasses with some honey (if you have grape honey available, even better!), dijon mustard, fresh garlic, a squeeze of lemon, some chopped fresh mint, rosemary and parsley, black pepper, salt, baharat/Lebanese 7 spice, and if you have it - urfa pepper. I then add some of the cooking water from the onions. The sauce shouldn't be too runny, but not too thick either, as it could burn with the honey in it.
