Rolls with feta cheese … How to cook them? In fact, this is not a complicated process. Let's talk about the test first. In the original, for the recipe you need to use filo dough (draft). This is a rather laborious process, but the result is worth it. You can find how to prepare it on the pages of the site. There is a detailed recipe. But with no less success, you can use puff pastry, both purchased and homemade. There will also be a very tasty dish. And for special lazy housewives, thin Armenian lavash is suitable.
I used feta cheese as a filling. Add finely chopped cilantro, green onions, dill, or parsley for a fuller and richer flavor. You can also add some olives or cheese shavings. But this is not the only filling. You can use different fillings when preparing one recipe, those that your homemade loves. For example, you can make the straws sweet with cottage cheese, apples, cherries or plums. From salty foods, minced meat, mashed potatoes, liver pate, etc. are suitable. In general, experiment using this recipe as a basis.

Step-by-step cooking of straws with feta cheese:
1. Put the cheese into a deep bowl and use a fork to break it into small pieces. Optionally, if you like a more uniform texture, you can interrupt it with a blender.
2. Add one egg to the cheese.
3. Stir well and taste. Add salt as needed. But it may not be needed, because feta cheese can be quite salty. You can also put any greens in the filling.
4. Roll out the filo dough thinly with a rolling pin and pull it out as thin as possible with the back of your hands. The ideal dough is considered when it is so thin that the font of the newspaper is visible through it. Read the detailed preparation of the filo dough in the recipe posted on the website.
5. Cut the stretched dough into two halves so that its size for one tube is about 30 cm by 15 cm. Divide the filling into four parts and put one of them on the dough.
6. Fold the edges of the dough as shown in the photo.
7. Roll the dough into a roll to form a tube.
8. Grease a baking sheet with a thin layer of oil and place the straws on it.
9. Drive the second egg into a small bowl and loosen it with a silicone brush. Lubricate the tubes with them so that they have a golden hue after baking.
10. Heat the oven to 180 degrees and send the tubes to bake for 20 minutes. The dough is very thin and cooks very quickly. Therefore, as soon as you see that the tubes have acquired a golden color, immediately remove them from the oven. You can use them both warm and cold.
