Cut the rolled phyllo dough into triangles. Place each triangle on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Brush and Garnish
Brush each triangle with egg yolk. This will give them a beautiful golden color when baked. Sprinkle poppy seeds on top for a nice crunch and extra flavor.
Bake to Perfection

Serve and Enjoy
Remove the tray from the oven and let the triangles cool slightly. Serve warm and enjoy the delightful combination of flaky pastry and savory filling.
