Ingredients
Scale
For the Feta Rolls:
- 8 oz feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 package of phyllo dough (approximately 16 sheets)
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Chili Honey:
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)
Optional Garnish:

Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Feta Filling
- Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine crumbled feta cheese, ricotta cheese, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Step 2: Assemble the Rolls
- Prepare the Phyllo Dough:
- Carefully unroll the phyllo dough and keep it covered with a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.
- Lay one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean, flat surface. Brush it lightly with melted butter.
- Place a second sheet of phyllo dough on top and brush it with more butter.
- Add the Filling:
- Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture along the edge of the phyllo dough.
- Fold the sides of the dough over the filling, then roll it up tightly to form a log.
- Repeat this process with the remaining phyllo sheets and cheese mixture.
Step 3: Bake the Rolls
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Arrange Rolls: Place the prepared rolls seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake: Brush the tops of the rolls with any remaining melted butter. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and crispy.
Step 4: Make the Chili Honey
- Heat Honey: In a small saucepan, combine honey and chili flakes.
- Warm: Heat over low heat for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the honey is infused with the chili flavor. Remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
Step 5: Serve
- Drizzle and Garnish: Once the rolls are baked and slightly cooled, drizzle them generously with the warm chili honey.
- Garnish: Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
