Servings: 6 people
Ingredients
- 150 grams feta
- 4 sheets phyllo pastry
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil for brushing
- 2 teaspoons mint dried
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds black or white
- 5 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- sea salt to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (355°F).
- Dry the feta on a piece of kitchen roll.
- Cut the cheese in half, halve each half again and again until you have 16 equal-sized pieces.
- Trim the phyllo into sections as wide as the feta (I got five pieces for each sheet). You will need 16 pieces in total.
- Brush olive oil on each piece of phyllo (the side facing up).
- Place a slice of feta at the top of the piece of pastry and roll it tightly.
- Sprinkle with dried mint on the last ⅓ of the rolled up pastry.
- Brush the top of the rolled fry with olive oil and sprinkle with black sesame seeds.
- When you've rolled all the fries, place them on a lined baking tray.
- Bake until golden and crispy (about 12-15 minutes).
- Heat the honey and chili flakes in a small pot on medium heat until the chili has infused the honey (about 2-3 minutes).
- Add sea salt to taste (optional).
- Pour the hot honey mixture into a bowl.
- Arrange the fries on a chopping board or platter and serve with hot honey.
