Ingredients
  

Rolls and Toppings
  • 8 sheets Phyllo Pastry Thawed according to package instructions
  • 8 oz (225g) Feta Cheese Cut into 8 rectangular batons
  • 1/2 cup (115g) Unsalted Butter Melted
  • 1/4 cup (85g) Amber Honey High quality, thick
  • 1/2 tsp (1g) Dried Red Chili Flakes
  • 1 tsp (3g) Black Sesame Seeds
  • 1 tsp (3g) White Sesame Seeds Toasted
  • 4 sprigs Fresh Thyme Leaves stripped from stems

Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet Large rimmed sheet
  • 1 Pastry Brush Silicone or natural bristle
  • 1 Small Saucepan For warming honey

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the feta into 8 uniform batons.
  2. Unroll the phyllo pastry and cover with a damp towel to prevent drying. Lay one sheet down, brush with butter, and top with a second sheet.
Assembly
  1. Place a feta baton at the bottom of the stack, fold the sides in, and roll tightly. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
  2. Brush the tops of all rolls generously with the remaining melted butter to ensure a golden brown toasted crust.
Baking and Serving
  1. Bake for 18-22 minutes until the edges are dark toasted and the rolls are golden brown. Let rest for 2 minutes.
  2. Warm the honey and chili flakes. Drizzle over the stacked rolls, then top with sesame seeds and fresh thyme.
