Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces of feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 package of phyllo pastry (typically contains 20 sheets)
- ¼ cup of fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon of dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- ½ cup of unsalted butter, melted
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup of honey
- 2 tablespoons of chili flakes
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine 8 ounces of crumbled feta cheese, ¼ cup of chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix until well incorporated.
- Prepare the Phyllo Pastry: Carefully unroll the phyllo pastry sheets and lay them flat on a clean surface. Cover them with a damp kitchen towel to prevent them from drying out as you work.
- Assemble the Rolls: Take one sheet of phyllo pastry, brush it lightly with melted butter (about 1 tablespoon), and fold it in half lengthwise. Place 2 tablespoons of the feta mixture at one end of the phyllo sheet. Carefully roll it up tightly like a burrito, and place it seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat this step for all pastry sheets.
- Prepare for Baking: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Once all rolls are assembled, brush the tops with additional melted butter for a golden finish.
- Bake the Rolls: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until they are crispy and golden brown. Watch closely in the last few minutes to prevent burning.
- Make the Dip: While the rolls are baking, prepare the honey dip by combining 1 cup of honey with 2 tablespoons of chili flakes in a small pot. Heat over low heat until warm but not boiling, stirring occasionally.
- Serve: Once the feta rolls are finished baking, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Drizzle or serve the chili honey dip on the side.
