Ingredients
For the Rolls
- 6 sheets phyllo dough
- 6 oz feta cheese, cut into sticks
- 3 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
For the Chili Honey
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for crispy, golden rolls.
- Prepare Phyllo Sheets: Cut each phyllo sheet into rectangles suitable for wrapping the feta sticks.
- Assemble Rolls: Place a piece of feta cheese near one edge of each phyllo rectangle, then roll tightly and fold the sides to seal the cheese inside.
- Brush with Oil or Butter: Brush each roll generously with olive oil or melted butter to achieve a golden, crispy texture when baked.
- Bake Rolls: Arrange the rolls on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Make Chili Honey: In a small bowl, combine honey, chili flakes, and lemon juice, stirring well to blend the sweet and spicy flavors.
- Serve: Drizzle the warm, crispy feta rolls with the chili honey before serving to add a spicy-sweet finish.
Notes
- These rolls are best served warm and crispy for optimal flavor and texture.
- Goat cheese can be used as an alternative to feta for a different taste profile.
