Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Sauté the spinach for 2–3 minutes until wilted. Let it cool, then squeeze out any excess moisture.
3. In a bowl, combine the spinach, feta, mozzarella, cream cheese, garlic, parsley, oregano, black pepper, and egg.
4. Lay one sheet of phyllo pastry on a clean surface and lightly brush with olive oil or melted butter. Add a second sheet on top.
5. Place a strip of filling near one edge and roll tightly into a thin cigar shape, folding in the sides as you roll.
6. Arrange the rolls seam-side down on the baking tray.
7. Brush the tops with more butter or olive oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
8. Bake for 22–25 minutes, or until deeply golden and crispy.
9. Mix the dip ingredients together and serve alongside the hot rolls.
