Dough

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate the Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add the activated yeast mixture and olive oil.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

    Mix until a dough forms. Transfer to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Let the Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Topping Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Toppings

    In a small bowl, mix the za'atar spice mix with olive oil to create a paste. Set aside.

  2. 6

    Prepare Vegetables and Cheese

    Dice the tomatoes and chop the fresh parsley. Crumble the feta cheese and set aside with the vegetables.

Assembly and Cooking

  1. 7

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a baking stone, place it in the oven to heat.

  2. 8

    Shape the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a flat circle about 8-10 inches in diameter.

  3. 9

    Add Toppings

    Spread the za'atar and olive oil mixture evenly over each dough circle. Top with crumbled feta, diced tomatoes, and chopped parsley.

  4. 10

    Bake the Manouche

    Transfer the topped dough to a baking sheet or preheated stone and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.

  5. 11

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute, and cut into wedges. Serve warm.
