Manakish
After a Persian cuisine craze last year, I am still craving for more Middle Eastern cuisines. I had fallen in love with the ingredients they used just as much as how I missed having a wonderful aroma in my kitchen. The thought of making this flatbread came when I wanna make use of my leftover sumac. "Instead of buying a ready-made za'atar, why not use my sumac to make my own, and why do I need za'atar? Yes! Manakish!" I was talking to myself in monologue. Lol!
Cooking instructions
* Step 3
By now the yeast should become foamy.
* Step 4
Once it becomes a dough, knead the dough inside the bowl until all the nooks and crannies of flour is kneaded into the dough, about 3 to 4 mins.
* Step 5
If the dough is too dry, add in water, 1 TBSP at a time. If the dough is too sticky, add in flour, 1 TBSP at a time.
* Step 6
While the dough is raising, prepare za'atar.
* Step 9
Lightly grease a baking tray with olive oil.
* Step 10
Lastly press the disc with fingers to form dimples.
* Step 11
Bake the manakish in batches if have to.
* Step 12
Remove from oven and set aside on a wire cooling rack to cool down to allow the za'atar to soak into the dough, for about 15 mins.
