Savory pastries are a popular element of Turkish cuisine, with a seemingly endless number of shapes and fillings. These little rolls are called sigara boregi, or pastry cigars, because of their shape.

Cooks' note: Phyllo rolls can be formed 1 day ahead and chilled on baking sheet, covered with plastic wrap. Bring to room temperature before baking.
