Learn how to make delicious Oven Fried Feta Rolls with Chili Honey. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

To create these delightful rolls, you’ll need a few simple ingredients that come together beautifully:

  • 8 sheets of phyllo pastry
  • 200 grams of feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/4 cup of honey
  • 1 teaspoon of chili flakes (adjust to taste)
  • Fresh thyme leaves for garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste

If you need a substitute for phyllo pastry, I recommend using puff pastry, though it will result in a slightly different texture. For those who prefer a milder flavor, you can swap the chili flakes with a dash of paprika.

Instructions

Follow these steps to bring a touch of Devon into your kitchen:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to avoid sticking.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the honey and chili flakes. Heat gently until the honey is warm and infused with the chili, then set aside.
  3. On a clean, dry surface, lay a sheet of phyllo pastry. Brush it lightly with olive oil, then layer another sheet on top. Repeat until you have four layers.
  4. Place a generous spoonful of crumbled feta on one end of the phyllo stack. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  5. Fold the sides of the phyllo over the feta and roll it up tightly, brushing the final edge with beaten egg to seal.
  6. Repeat the process with the remaining sheets and feta until you have eight rolls.
  7. Arrange the rolls on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each roll with more olive oil and a touch of the beaten egg.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and crispy.
  9. Drizzle the warm rolls with the chili honey and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves before serving.

As my mum always said, the secret to perfect phyllo is a gentle touch and a bit of patience. Let the rolls cool slightly before serving to let the flavors meld beautifully.
