Soak grape leaves in hot water for 10-15 minutes until softened.

In a pan, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté chopped onion until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add rice to the pan and stir for 2-3 minutes until slightly translucent.

Stir in pine nuts, dill, parsley, salt, black pepper, cinnamon, and mint; cook for another 2 minutes.

Remove from heat and add lemon juice, mixing well.

Lay a grape leaf on a flat surface, shiny side down, and place a spoonful of filling at the base.

Fold the sides over the filling and roll tightly from the base to the tip.

Repeat with remaining leaves and filling.

Place stuffed leaves seam-side down in a pot, layering them neatly.

Add sliced tomato on top and pour in water until just covered.

Drizzle with olive oil and place a plate on top to keep them submerged.

Cover the pot and cook on low heat for about 45-60 minutes until rice is tender.

Remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
