Comment préparer

1
Combine the flour, lukewarm water, instant yeast, sugar, and 5 g of the salt in a large bowl. Mix until a shaggy dough forms, then knead for 6 to 8 minutes until smooth and springy.
2
Rub the dough with 15 ml of the olive oil, cover the bowl, and let it rest in a warm, draft-free place for 60 to 75 minutes, until visibly puffy and nearly doubled.
3
Heat the oven to 250°C with a heavy baking sheet or pizza stone inside for at least 30 minutes. Mix the za'atar, sesame seeds, remaining salt, and 45 ml of olive oil into a thick, spreadable paste.
4
Divide the dough into four equal pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll or press each piece into a 15 cm round about 5 mm thick, keeping the center slightly thicker than the edge.
5
Transfer the rounds to parchment. Press shallow dimples across each surface with your fingertips, leaving a narrow border, then spread each with one-quarter of the za'atar mixture.

6
Carefully slide the parchment onto the heated sheet or stone. Bake one batch at a time for 8 to 12 minutes, until the underside is set, the edges are golden, and small bubbles on the topping are lightly browned.

7
Cool the manakish for 3 minutes so the topping settles, then serve warm with fresh vegetables, olives, or labneh.

Pourquoi cette recette fonctionne

A slow, brief dough rise gives the flatbread enough flavor and elasticity without making it bready, while the generous oil-based za'atar topping carries the herbaceous, tangy, and nutty character of this Levantine staple.
