Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped dill
  • 1 clove garlic grated
  • 16 –20 sheets frozen phyllo dough thawed
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil plus more for brushing
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter
  • 1 –2 teaspoons chili flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1/3 cup honey

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, combine crumbled feta, chopped dill, and grated garlic. Mix until evenly combined.
  • Lay one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface and fold it in half crosswise. Lightly brush olive oil around the edges.
  • Place 1 rounded tablespoon of feta filling on the short end. Roll the phyllo over the filling, folding the sides inward burrito-style to seal. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat to form 12–16 rolls.
  • Brush the tops of each roll lightly with olive oil.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the phyllo is crisp and golden brown.
  • While the rolls bake, melt butter with 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add chili flakes and cumin seeds. Cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in honey.
  • Serve Oven Fried Feta Rolls with Chili Honey warm, drizzled generously or with the honey sauce on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Add a squeeze of lemon zest to the feta for brightness.
