Cigarette Borek ( Sigara Boregi )


Ingredients
1 package of phyllo dough, or Turkish phyllo  dough
1 cup feta cheese
1/3 cup parsley
1 cup olive oil for frying

Direction 
1-In a mixing bowl, mix feta, and parsley together. This is best done with a fork, mashing the feta.

2-Prepare oil to fry. The desired heat of the oil is 350 degrees.
3-While the oil is heating, remove phyllo from refrigerator. Be sure to have a damp towel on hand to cover the phyllo you are not working with. Phyllo dough dries out quickly if left uncovered.
4-Take one sheet of phyllo and cut into fourths.  Place about 1 tablespoon of cheese mixture at the base and roll up.  Repeat with remaining phyllo and cheese mixture.
5-Fry in about 2 inches of oil for 2-4 minutes, or until golden brown. Use to a sieve to remove from oil. Drain on paper towel. 

Serve immediately.
