1. Rinse the grape leaves, blanch them briefly in boiling water if preserved in brine, then drain and pat dry.
2. Finely chop the onion, tomatoes, parsley, and mint.
3. Mix the meats, rice, onion, half the tomatoes, herbs, cinnamon, salt, pepper, and 2 tbsp olive oil.
4. Place a spoonful of filling on each leaf, fold in the sides, and roll into tight parcels.
5. Line a pot with a few leaves, pack the rolls seam-side down, and scatter the remaining tomato over them.
6. Add the rest of the olive oil, lemon juice, and enough water to just cover.
7. Weight with a plate and simmer gently, covered, for about 1 hour until the rice is tender and the liquid is reduced.
8. Rest 10 minutes, then serve warm with the cooking juices.
