Blanch the leaves in boiling water for 3-4 minutes, until pliable. To prepare the filling: sauté the onions and garlic in the oil for 3 minutes. Add the celery and marjoram, cover, and cook on medium heat for 5-10 minutes, until the vegetables are softened. Stir in the mushrooms, sherry, soy sauce, dill and thyme and simmer until the mushrooms are tender and juicy. Remove from the heat and stir in the bulgur, rice, currants, and lemon juice.

Place 1/4 cup of the filling in the center of each leaf. Fold the sides of each leaf toward the center, and then roll it up form the stem end to the tip to form a neat little package.
