minutes. Add the celery and marjoram, cover, and cook on medium heat for
5-10 minutes,until the vegetables are softened. Stir in the mushrooms,
sherry, soy sauce, dill and thyme and simmer until the mushrooms are tender
and juicy. Remove from the heat and stir in the bulgur, rice, currants, and
lemon juice.
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Prepare a 9 x 12 inch baking dish with a very light coating of oil or
cooking spray. Cover the bottom with the tomato slices, and set aside.
Place 1/4 cup of the filling in the center of each leaf. Fold the sides of
each leaf toward the center, and then roll it up form the stem end to the
tip to form a neat little package. Place the rolls, seam side down, pour
the tomato juice over them, and cover tightly with foil. Bake for 30 - 40
minutes until heated through. SErve the rolls with some pan juices spooned
over the top, and garnish with the sour cream.
