Cheddar & Za'atar Rolls recipe by Zaytoun

Ingredients:

Method:

  1. Add the yeast to the warm (but not hot) milk and stir with a fork until dissolved, then leave the mixture to sit for 5 minutes.
  2. Tip the flour into a mixing bowl and make a well in the centre. Pour the yeast mixture into the well and use a fork to mix into the flour as best as you can. Add the lukewarm water, olive oil and salt, then use your hands to mix together to form a dough. Cover the bowl with clingfilm and leave to rest for 10 minutes, then knead the dough in the bowl for 1 minute. Repeat the resting and kneading process twice more.
  3. Line your largest baking tray with baking paper. Divide the dough into 6 balls on the lined tray, then rub with olive oil. Sprinkle each ball with 1 teaspoon za’atar and rub all over the dough, then sprinkle over a little more za’atar to evenly coat. Scatter an equal quantity of the cheese  on top of each roll and sprinkle over the remaining za’atar. Leave to rest in a warm place for 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan), Gas Mark 7.
  5. Bake the rolls for 30 minutes until cooked through and the cheese turns golden. Remove  from the oven and leave to cool before serving.
