Spoon about 1 generous tablespoon of the filling on stem end.  Roll leaf away from you, folding in the sides, and shaping it as you go, into a small log. Place the shaped stuffed grape leaf with the open/seam side down in a large pot. As you roll more dolmades, pack them tightly next to each other so they don’t unroll. You can stack them on top of each other, but try using the largest pot you have so the layers aren’t too deep. Pour chicken broth on top of the grape leaves, cover and bring to a boil.
