Read Ray Hanania’s columns on politics, life in general, and his love for Middle East and Arab food by visiting hanania.com.

In this column, Hanania discusses how to make Stuffed Grape Leaves, made of grape leaves, diced lamb, rice, and Ox Tail.

It’s an easy recipe he learned from his mother, who was born in Bethlehem — not Pennsylvania, but in Palestine.

He watched her slave in the kitchen for hours every day, every week she prepared and cooked Middle Eastern foods, including stuffed Grape Leaves, wariq duwalli in Arabic.
