Instructions
Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, fresh dill, chopped mint, lemon zest, and a generous pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
- On a clean, dry surface, take one sheet of phyllo pastry and lightly brush it with olive oil. Add another sheet on top and brush that one too. Repeat until you have a solid foundation.
- Cut the layered phyllo sheets into 4 equal strips running lengthwise.
- Spoon approximately one tablespoon of the feta mixture onto the end of each strip of phyllo. Fold the sides over the filling and roll into a cylinder shape.
- Place the rolls seam-side down on the lined baking sheet, spaced evenly apart.
- Lightly brush the tops of the rolls with olive oil before baking.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, watching for a lovely golden-brown color.
- While the rolls bake, combine the honey, chili flakes, and lemon juice in a small saucepan and warm over low heat.
- Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Drizzle the warm chili honey over the rolls.

These rolls are freezer-friendly; freeze before baking for longer storage.
