Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine crumbled feta cheese, chopped fresh dill, minced fresh mint, lemon zest, and black pepper. Mix until fully combined.
  3. Lay one sheet of phyllo pastry on a flat surface, brush with olive oil, then layer a second sheet on top and brush again. Repeat to create three layers.
  4. Cut the layered phyllo into four long strips lengthwise, keeping the edges straight.
  5. Place a tablespoon of filling at one end of each strip, fold the sides over, and roll tightly to encapsulate the filling.
  6. Arrange the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with olive oil.
  7. Bake the rolls for 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Prepare the chili honey by combining honey, chili flakes, and lemon juice in a saucepan over low heat. Stir and warm to slightly thicken for 3-5 minutes.
  9. Let the rolls cool slightly, drizzle with chili honey, and serve warm.
