Prepare the grape leaves by blanching them in boiling water for 30 seconds, then immediately plunging them into an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, rice, onion, and spices, and mix well with your hands until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Lay a grape leaf flat on a work surface, with the stem end facing you, and place about 1 tablespoon of the meat mixture in the center of the leaf.
Fold the stem end over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll the leaf into a neat package, applying gentle pressure to seal the dolma.
Repeat with the remaining grape leaves and meat mixture, until all the ingredients have been used, about 20 dolmas.
Place the dolmas in a large pot, seam-side down, in a single layer, and add enough water to cover them, then bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25–30 minutes, or until the dolmas are cooked through and the grape leaves are tender.
