Preparation

Step 1

1. Combine zahtar and sesame seeds and a pinch of salt.

4. Sprinkle with zahtar mixture evenly over Lebni and flatbread. Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil over all. Top with tomatoes and chives.

5. Herb Oil Naan: Blend all ingredients except flatbread until smooth like a pesto. Brush both sides of the naan and let marinate for several hours. Griddle or grill bread evenly on both sides. Cut bread into wedges before serving.

6. For the zahtar I use three parts zatar to 1 part toasted garam masala for added depth of flavor.

You can easily make the lebni with a little room in the refrigerator and 48 hours of time to hang the cheese.
