Tomatoes and feta with crispy zaatar pitas
This recipe for Tomatoes feta and crispy pitas with zaatar is surely the recipe of the summer! In any case, it’s an explosion of flavors and textures that enchant me! I’m on the verge of culinary poetry! That’s how much I love this simple recipe!
The star of this recipe is, in my opinion, the crispy zaatar pita.
It’s really the best discovery of the summer as far as I’m concerned.
Inspired by Lebanese manouchés, this way of cooking pitas is brilliant. I usually use store-bought pitas. In reality, you can use just about any flatbread. Just cover it with zaatar. Very generously. Then drizzle with olive oil. And pop them in the oven to develop the flavours and crisp them up to perfection.
Then you can break them into small pieces and add them to the dish. As I’ve done here. Or dip them in the creams and hummus of your choice!
What’s more, it’s a perfect anti-gaspi technique, as it allows you to use pitas that aren’t too fresh!
Here, I’ve prepared a simple feta cream. I didn’t even take out my blender. I simply crumbled the feta into some yoghurt and added some pressed garlic.
This dish was ready in about twenty minutes. And it’s a real summer delight!
