ZA’ATAR MAN’OUCHE


One of my favorite breakfast/lunch meals is a za’atar man’ouche with toppings of cherry tomatoes, green onion and avocado.  A za’atar man’ouche is a Lebanese flat bread herb pizza. Za’atar is a mix of spices, mainly wild thyme, oregano and sumac with toasted sesame seeds.  .
 Making a za’atar man’ouche is very easy.  All you have to do is make some homemade dough and mix about equal parts of olive oil and za’atar spice together.  Spread your dough and coat an even layer of the za’atar mix on the dough then top with veggies. In my opinion the best toppings for this man’ouche is cherry tomatoes, green onion, fresh avocado (after baking) and/or a egg.  It is very important to bake the man’ouche around 500 degrees in the oven for about 5 or 7 minutes or it could get overcooked. And that’s about it… enjoy.

    I have honestly never heard of Za'atar, but after reading your post, I would love to try this! Is the picture your own? It is so beautifully plated and looks absolutely delicious! I really hope for more posts like this in the future so I can learn about various types of foods. I love that you included the recipe and your suggestions on the best way to make this. Where did you learn to make Za'atar?

    Wow this looks and sounds delicious! It might just be the fact that I haven't had dinner yet, but I would absolutely scarf that down right about now. It's helpful for readers that you included the process of making it so that we can try ourselves!

    You may in fact have a career in the culinary arts or as a food critic. I am definitely going to have to try this Lebanese dish. I am a sucker when it comes to Middle Eastern food.

An ex Amazon software developer, Raman, left her job to start up an food delivery service, Buttermilk Co. The service/product includes ready to cook meals (mainly Indian cuisine) just by adding water plus delivery service.  Raman was inspired to start this journey when her mother sent her ingredients in a bag to make rasam and all she needed to do was add water.   Raman is someone I inspire to be.  Raman found a passion and took a risk.  I know a handful of people like Raman, they have a great, well paying job but one day they decide to do something totally unexpected and follow their passion.  Some people have always followed their passion, some people are still seeking for their passion and some people are scared of their passion. It's hard to follow a passion even if that passion may not support your living but it's worth it in the end.
