  • If you prefer a spicier flavor, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the meat mixture.
  • To make the folding process easier, you can stack multiple sheets of phyllo dough together and cut them into smaller squares before filling them with the meat mixture.
  • For a vegetarian version, you can substitute the ground meat with cooked and seasoned vegetables such as mushrooms, bell peppers, and zucchini.
