Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Filling: Combine the crumbled feta, softened cream cheese, dill, parsley, lemon zest, and pepper in a medium bowl. Mix gently until just combined.
  2. Prepare the Pastry Stack 1: Lay out one sheet of filo pastry on a clean, dry surface. Lightly brush the entire surface with melted butter. Gently lay a second sheet directly on top, brush with butter, then a third layer. Repeat the process to create a second stack of three sheets.
  3. Cut the Filo: Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice each stacked pastry set horizontally into two equal long strips. This results in four prepared strips, each consisting of three layers of filo.
  4. Portion and Roll: Place about 1 ½ tablespoons of the feta mixture near one end of a filo strip, leaving a 1-inch border. Fold the short end over the filling, neatly fold in the sides, then tightly roll the parcel away from you like a spring roll. Brush the final seam lightly with butter to seal.
  5. Bake Preparation: Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F / Gas Mark 6). Arrange all rolls seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops generously with the remaining melted butter and sprinkle lightly with sesame seeds, if using.
  6. Cook: Bake for 15–18 minutes, checking often, until the rolls are deeply golden brown and visibly crisp.
  7. Make the Drizzle: While the rolls bake, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, and flaky sea salt.
  8. Serve: Remove rolls from the oven. Let them rest for two minutes, then arrange on a platter and drizzle generously with the lemon-oregano dressing before serving immediately.
