Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
  • 8 oz block feta cheese patted dry and cut into 1/2-inch sticks
  • 1/4 cup honey plus more for drizzling
  • 1 tsp red chili flakes adjust to taste
  • 1 large egg beaten for egg wash
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds for topping

Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet
  • 1 Pastry Brush
  • 1 Parchment Paper

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Gently pat the block of feta dry with paper towels. Cut it into ½-inch thick batons or sticks.
  3. Lightly flour your work surface and unfold the puff pastry sheet. Cut it into rectangles, roughly 2x3 inches each. Place a stick of feta on each pastry rectangle.
  4. Drizzle each feta stick generously with honey and sprinkle with red chili flakes.
  5. Brush the edges of the pastry with the egg wash. Fold the short sides over the feta, then roll it up tightly like a small envelope. Press the seam to seal.
  6. Place the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the remaining egg wash and sprinkle generously with sesame seeds.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed up and a deep golden brown.
  8. Let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving. Drizzle with more honey and chili flakes if desired.

Notes

Tip 1: Ensure your puff pastry stays cold for the flakiest results.
Tip 2: Use block feta in brine for the best creamy texture.
Tip 3: Don't skip the egg wash; it's essential for that perfect golden-brown, crispy exterior.
