Ingredients

 * 1/4 cup Vegetable oil
 * 1 egg ~ beaten
 * 1 small Onion ~ chopped (1/4 cup)
 * 2 tbsp Flat leaf Parsley ~ chopped
 * 1/2 lb Ground Beef
 * 6 phyllo sheets ~ 12x17" each
 * 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
 * lemon wedges for serving
 * 1/4 tsp Black pepper

Directions

 * 1) Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a skillet, add the Onion and stir-fry over moderate heat for 2 minutes.
 * 2) Add the Beef, salt and pepper and stir-fry for 5 minutes.
 * 3) Then add the egg and Parsley and fry for 1 minute more. Cool well.
 * 4) Take 1 phyllo sheet and spread it out flat with a short end nearest you.
 * 5) Place 2 heaping tablespoons of the Beef mixture 2 inches in from the short edge.
 * 6) Fold both long sides in toward the middle, beginning with the short end roll the phyllo to shape a packet 4 inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide.
 * 7) Repeat with all the remaining phyllo sheets and stuffing. Set aside.
 * 8) Put the balance of the oil in a skillet over moderate/low heat and addthe rolls.
 * 9) Brown on both sides for about 3 minutes; the low heat prevents the very thin pastry sheets from burning.
 * 10) Drain the rolls on paper towels for a minute.
 * 11) Serve warm with a squeeze of lemon juice.
