Armenia - Dolmas: Stuffed Cabbage and Capsicum

This week I made Armenian Dolmas, which are stuffed vegetables. In the past I have made Greek style stuffed capsicums but the Armenian version were steamed/boiled which resulted in quite a different flavour. Both Peter and I don’t really like the the vine leaf dolmas, so we were both a bit sceptical about cabbage dolmas but they were delicious!

Angolan food is an interesting blend of African and Portuguese cuisines. This week I cooked Angola’s national dish: Muamba de Galinha, which is a traditional chicken stew.
