# How To Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a bowl, combine feta, cream cheese, parsley, dill, lemon zest, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
03 - Lay one sheet of phyllo pastry on a clean surface and brush lightly with melted butter. Place another sheet on top and brush again. Cut the layered sheets into thirds lengthwise to create 3 strips.
04 - Place a heaping tablespoon of the feta filling near one end of each strip. Fold in the sides and roll up tightly to seal. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling to make 12 rolls.
05 - Arrange rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush tops with remaining melted butter.
06 - Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden and crisp.
07 - Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over low heat, combine honey, chili flakes, lemon juice, and salt. Warm gently for 2-3 minutes, stirring, until aromatic (do not boil). Set aside.
08 - Serve feta rolls hot, drizzled with spicy chili honey.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • You get that deepfried crunch without the mess of oil or lingering kitchen smells
  • The cheese filling stays incredibly creamy while the outside turns golden and shatteringly crisp
  • The spicy honey drizzle transforms something simple into restaurantquality appetizers
02 -
  • Working quickly with phyllo is key because it dries out fast and becomes impossible to work with
  • The filling should be room temperature so it spreads easily without tearing the delicate pastry
03 -
  • Space the rolls evenly on the baking sheet so hot air can circulate and crisp every side
  • Let the spicy honey cool slightly before drizzling so it thickens just enough to cling to the rolls
