Za'atar and Cheese Manakish — Lebanese Breakfast
Picture a sunny morning in Beirut: the smell of warm bread and za'atar fills the kitchen. These manakish, small Levantine pizzas, are a staple of the Lebanese breakfast. Za'atar, that blend of herbs and sesame, takes you straight to the Middle East. Easy to make, they will delight your brunches. To answer your curiosity, Lebanese cuisine is full of typical dishes like hummus, tabbouleh or falafel, and mezze are those varied small starters shared in a friendly way. Here, no pork or alcohol: only authentic and halal flavors. Enjoy your meal!
