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
- 01Begin by mashing the cooked white beans in a small bowl with a fork until they reach a creamy yet slightly chunky consistency.
- 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.
- 03Season the mash with half of the za'atar, ensuring the earthy hyssop and toasted sesame flavors are evenly distributed.
- 04Arrange the cucumber rounds and halved grape tomatoes on the side of a small breakfast plate.
- 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.
