How To Make maria's bell peppers & feta cheese rolls
-
Step 1Saute onion & peppers in 3 Tbsp olive oil for about 5 min. or until softened. Add salt & pepper, careful with the salt due to the cheeses, and set aside to cool.
-
Step 2Once cooled add the crumbled feta and grated gruyere, 2 beaten eggs, the yogurt & the mint. Mix well to combine the ingredients.
-
Step 3Preheat the oven at 350* F and start preparing the rolls. TIP:: Remember to cover the unused phyllo sheets with a kitchen towel (cotton or linen) so they don't dry. Spread one phyllo sheet on your kitchen counter and drizzle some olive oil, here & there. Spread one more phyllo sheet on top and again drizzle some olive oil.
-
Step 4Cut the sheets into 3 long strips. At the end, closer to you, of each strip add 1 or 2 Tbsp of filling. Wrap into rolls by folding the edges inwards. Repeat the same procedure with the remaining phyllo sheets & filling.
-
Step 5Place the rolls in a lightly greased with olive oil, shallow baking pan or cookie sheet. Bake in preheated oven at 350* F for 30 -35 minutes or until golden & crispy. KALI OREXI: ENJOY!!
