Ingredients

Scale

Phyllo Rolls

  • 1 package of phyllo dough, thawed
  • 8 oz feta cheese, cut into small logs
  • 1/4 cup melted butter

Chili Honey

  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon chili flakes
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Garnish

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare Phyllo Layers: Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface and lightly brush it with melted butter. Layer a second sheet on top and brush again. Repeat until you have four layers of buttery phyllo ready.
  3. Cut Strips and Add Feta: Cut the layered phyllo dough into strips approximately 3 inches wide. Place a small log of feta cheese at the end of each strip to prepare for rolling.
  4. Roll and Seal: Carefully roll the feta inside the phyllo strip, folding the edges inward to seal the cheese inside, forming neat little packages. Arrange the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet for stability.
  5. Brush and Bake: Brush the outside of each roll generously with melted butter to achieve a golden, crispy texture. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the phyllo is crisp and golden brown.
  6. Make Chili Honey: While the rolls bake, warm the honey gently in a saucepan over low heat. Stir in the chili flakes and apple cider vinegar, allowing the flavors to meld and create a smooth, spicy honey sauce.
  7. Serve: Drizzle the warm chili honey generously over the baked feta rolls. Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use phyllo dough sheets carefully, covering unused sheets with a damp towel to prevent drying out.
  • If you prefer less heat, reduce the chili flakes or omit entirely.
  • Feta cheese can be substituted with halloumi for a different texture.
  • These rolls are best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be reheated in an oven to retain crispiness.
  • Ensure butter is melted but not hot to avoid tearing delicate phyllo sheets during brushing.
