Sweet Za’atar Rolls

It feels like autumn has arrived. The days are still warm but it feels like there is a slight chill in the air and the mornings are definitely just that bit darker for longer. This means we are heading to meals consisting of nourishing broths and soups. And I really do think these Za’atar Rolls are a must to bake to mop up all those comforting soups.
But while we wait for the cold to properly arrive, these soft rolls packed with loads of flavour from the za’atar mix can easily replace that good old garlic bread at your next barbecue.

This is the second recipe I have made from Joudie Kalla’s book, Palestine on a Plate – Memories from my mother’s kitchen. The book is a tribute to her family, mother and home and packed with recipes for the most delicious Palestinian food.
I tweaked the recipe slightly by adding some harissa for some extra spice and feta cheese for a salty undertone. You can omit the harissa paste but I liked the added flavour of cumin and coriander coming through. The paste can be very spicy so do taste it before adding as part of the filling.

I used two za’atars from different countries. One was from Dubai and the other from Turkey. The Turkish blend was much spicier than the Dubai one so do taste the blend before using. (Of course homemade is always better and there is recipe in Joudie’s book). The filling requires a lot of the za’atar blend and I think you could reduce it by up to a third to start off with. If you feel it is too little then sprinkle some more on top.
Freshly baked with loads of herbs and spice flavours, these rolls are just delicious. Serve simply drizzled with olive oil or spread with homemade labneh and enjoy!
