Ingredients
  • 11.8 g (raw weight) dry white beans, boiled until tender
  • 30g grape tomatoes, halved
  • 40g cucumber, sliced into rounds
  • 5g tahini
  • 2g fresh garlic, minced
  • 3.4 g Za'atar seasoning
Method
  1. 01Begin by mashing the cooked white beans in a small bowl with a fork until they reach a creamy yet slightly chunky consistency.
  2. 02Stir in the minced garlic and tahini until fully incorporated; if the mixture is too thick, add a teaspoon of warm water to achieve a smooth, spreadable paste.
  3. 03Season the mash with half of the za'atar, ensuring the earthy hyssop and toasted sesame flavors are evenly distributed.
  4. 04Arrange the cucumber rounds and halved grape tomatoes on the side of a small breakfast plate.
  5. 05Spoon the bean mixture into the center and finish by sprinkling the remaining za'atar over the top for a fragrant, aromatic crust. Serve immediately while fresh.
