Filo-Wrapped Feta
Filo-Wrapped Feta
Although small in size, these filo-wrapped feta parcels punch above their weight in flavour and richness. Perfect served as an appetiser or with a salad as a light meal, the combination of salty, soft, warm cheese and the sweet stickiness of the honey is next level.

Recipe
Ingredients
- 6 sheets filo pastry, defrosted
- 80g butter, melted

- 2 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- ¼ cup honey
Method
- Preheat your oven to 190°C and line a baking tray with silicone paper.

- Lay a second sheet of filo on top and brush with butter.
- Cut in half longways and place a finger of feta at the short end of each half.
- Add a touch of lemon zest to the top of the feta.
- Roll the feta up tightly in the filo and squeeze the ends closed.
- Sit on the baking tray and repeat with remaining ingredients until you have 6 filo parcels on the tray.
- Brush all over with remaining butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Bake for 20-25 mins until golden and crisp.
- Drizzle with honey before serving.
