Ingredients
4 servings
- •1 teaspoon olive oil
- •0.5 pound lean ground beef
- •0.5 cup canned crushed tomatoes, drained
- •0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- •0.25 teaspoon ground cumin
- •0.125 teaspoon paprika
- •0.125 teaspoon ground allspice

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook ground beef until it loses its pink color and begins to brown; drain fat from skillet. Add tomatoes, cinnamon, cumin, paprika, and allspice. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until mixture reduces slightly, about 10 minutes.
- Remove one phyllo sheet from the package and keep the rest covered with a clean cloth until ready to use. On a flat work surface, cut phyllo sheet into two 14x9-inch rectangles; spray one rectangle with cooking spray, place the other rectangle on top and spray again with oil. Place a generous teaspoon of meat filling near the narrow end of dough. Fold dough over meat, fold in the sides of dough, and roll into a cigar-shaped tube. Repeat until meat filling has been rolled up. Arrange phyllo cigars on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in preheated oven until lightly browned, about 25 minutes.
