Method
 

How to Make Crispy Feta Rolls with Chili Honey
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This step ensures that your rolls bake evenly and get that delightful golden brown color.
  2. Crumble feta cheese into a mixing bowl. Add chopped herbs, chili flakes, salt, and pepper, mixing gently until everything is combined into a creamy, aromatic filling.
  3. Layer phyllo dough sheets, brushing lightly with olive oil between each sheet (3-4 sheets). This will help create that irresistible crispiness once baked.
  4. Cut the layered phyllo into 4-inch wide strips. This size is perfect for rolling up the filling while keeping it contained.
  5. Place a spoonful of the feta filling at one end of each strip, then roll tightly to secure the filling. Continue until all strips are filled and rolled.
  6. Arrange the rolls on a baking sheet, ensuring they’re spaced apart. Brush the tops with remaining olive oil to add toasty flavor and a beautiful finish.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them in the last few minutes to avoid burning!
  8. Heat honey in a saucepan over low heat with a pinch of extra chili flakes, stirring until melted. Drizzle over warm rolls before serving for an extra layer of sweetness.
