Crumble the feta cheese in a bowl and add the egg and the chopped mint leaves. We melted a piece of butter in the microwave. We took a sheet of brick out of the container leaving the rest tightly covered. Cut the sheet in half and cut each half a little bit of the curved part to make it as rectangular as possible.
Place a spoonful of filling giving it an elongated shape, fold the longer sides so that the filling is enclosed between them. We fold in half and roll up.
Repeat this operation with the second half and with the other sheets. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the rolls. When removing them, we put them on a plate with kitchen paper so that it absorbs excess oil.
We serve very hot.
