Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium. Add diced onion.
Step 2
Sauté onion until softened, ~4 minutes. Add minced garlic; cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 3
Add spinach in batches, stirring until wilted and any liquid cooks off, ~5 minutes.
Step 4
Remove from heat. Stir in crumbled feta, fresh dill, salt, and pepper. Cool 5 minutes.
Step 5
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 6
Lay one phyllo sheet on a work surface. Brush lightly with olive oil.
Step 7
Add 2 more phyllo sheets, brushing oil between each layer. Spread half the spinach filling along one long edge.
Step 8
Roll tightly into a cylinder, tucking sides in as you go. Place seam-side down on baking sheet.
Step 9
Repeat with remaining 4 phyllo sheets, oil, and remaining filling to make a second roll.
Step 10
Brush both rolls with remaining olive oil. Cut each into 4 equal pieces.
Step 11
