Description

Sweet, spicy chili honey paired with creamy feta rolled in flaky puff pastry creates an irresistible appetizer with bold flavor and perfect texture, ideal for entertaining or a flavorful snack.


Ingredients

Chili Honey

  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Feta Rolls

  • 1 sheet puff pastry
  • 150 g feta cheese
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)


Instructions

  1. Prepare Chili Honey: In a small saucepan, gently heat the honey with red chili flakes and garlic powder over low heat for 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally to infuse the flavors. Remove from heat and set aside to keep warm.
  2. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) to ensure it reaches the proper temperature for baking the rolls evenly.
  3. Prepare Puff Pastry: Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface and cut it into strips approximately 1 to 1.5 inches wide, ensuring uniform size for even baking.
  4. Add Feta: Cut the feta cheese into small pieces and place them evenly along each pastry strip, leaving some space around the edges to seal the rolls.
  5. Roll Pastry: Carefully roll the pastry strips tightly around the feta pieces to form neat rolls, then place them seam-side down on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
  6. Apply Egg Wash: Beat the egg and brush it over the tops of the rolls to achieve a shiny, golden Brown finish after baking.
  7. Bake: Bake the feta rolls in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes, or until they are puffed up and golden brown.
  8. Serve: Remove the rolls from the oven and immediately drizzle the warm chili honey over them to coat before serving for maximum flavor contrast.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of red chili flakes to your preferred spice level for a milder or hotter flavor.
  • Add toasted sesame seeds sprinkled over the rolls before baking for extra texture and nuttiness.
  • Feta rolls are best served warm to enjoy the full contrast of flaky pastry, creamy cheese, and spicy-sweet honey.
