    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high. Add minced onion, cook 2 minutes until soft.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in spice blend, then fold in rice. Cook 1 minute until fragrant and heated through.

  4. Step 4

    Lay one phyllo sheet on your work surface, brush lightly with oil, layer 3 more sheets, brushing each.
