If you’re a fan of flatbread, you HAVE to try Manakiesh in the Middle East! This video will show you why it’s the absolute best flatbread you’ll ever taste.
Za’atar Manakeesh are a Levantine flatbread topped with a tantalising blend of aromatic herbs, toasted sesame seeds, and sumac, known as za’atar. This modest yet aromatic flatbread has become a beloved dish in Egypt, brought by waves of Palestinian, Lebanese, and Syrian migrants who have found a home in Egypt over the past century. Their culinary influence has enriched Egyptian cuisine, making Za’atar Manakeesh a popular and cherished addition. Manakeesh become all the more popular when copts observe a meatless and dairy-free diet to celebrate
St. Mary fasting (August 7-22), or any fasting throughout the year.
Za’atar literally means oregano in English but it has another significance in Middle Eastern cuisine. Za’atar is a spice mix of dried thyme, oregano, marjoram, sumac, toasted sesame seeds, salt, and pepper. Also, there are some other variations that include cumin and coriander.
