Ingredients

1 egg

1 piece of feta cheese

phyllo (either for baklava or for pita)

Olive oil for frying

Directions

Beat the egg with a fork and add feta until all the egg is absorbed.

Add pepper and dried mint (optional).


Mix them well.

Cut your phyllo sheets in about 11/2 – 2 inches wide stripes.

Place a teaspoonful of cheese and make a triangle.

Continue folding going back and forth until the end of stripe.

Fry in hot oil but careful because they may easily burn.

  1. I think I will make with puff pastry as i am not that good in handling phyllo, last time i tried, some of them opened up.
    I will try with feta and with goat cheese.
    Here I love feta and my hubby and daughter likes goat cheese :-)

  2. Good luck! I hope you will like them.
