Thank you for sharing this, Nadia. This is now a staple in my life and I am very grateful. I can’t believe Za’atar hasn’t always been part of my life! Keep the great videos coming!
Hello Nadia, I'm late to the party. Just discovered you today while looking for homemade shatta. Love your style and that you've held on to your Palestinian culture. Keep on being you. Waleed
Hi Nadia, my european interpretation of this recipe is: 450g flour (350g rétesliszt, 100g tönköly simaliszt), 10g salt - the dry part 200ml water ~ 60°C, 50ml milk, 5-7g dry yeast, 5ml extra virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon honey (2 cl) - let 5-10 minutes the yeast come to life (should bubble) (wet part) mix well (best with spatula, or by machine) take the dough to a oiled bowl (glass bowl is ideal), cover well and hope it will rise as it should :) .... continue as Nadia does ;)
Don't use milk in it it will make the taste worst use fresh yeast don't use honey use sugar let the dough double overnight then cut them into little balls then let them rest for 2 hours and u have to cook it in an oven that has a temperature of 400c otherwise the dough will be dry
I 100% 10000% agree with you on that dough is something that needs to be felt and treated with so much love! Food processors are super handy and I use mine sometimes for dough but man there’s something about using your hands. Especially for mana2eesh! I love this video ❤️ also, my daughters name is Nadia! 😁
Delicious! I'm glad you're back Alhamdulillah. I have to try to make the dough. Usually I just put the olive oil and zatar on pita that I've already bought and bake it.
I do that too, when I am just *craving* mana'eesh! I keep whole wheat naan in the freezer all the time just for that purpose. I actually sprinkle zaatar on dry and bake it, then drizzle olive oil once it comes out. So tasty. But it's special to take an afternoon and make some dough yourself! Thanks for watching :)
I am always looking for recipes to share with friends and family that are most likely to be new to them. Thanks. Also, you have a great cadence and tone explaining recipe.
@@NadiaGilbert I am as well half Greek, half Palestinian that my half family lives in Jordan and whenever I am there either for filming or just visiting my family, I always go to "Sehrazat"this place for kofta with tahina that is opposite of "Hashem"restaurant in the alley where the kiosk with the books is..I made this intro to suggest as well "kofta with tahina or with pandora and basal.. ;);):)AFTER MOLOKHIA OFCOURSSE!!:):):)Can't wait!!! ;)shokran kteer!!Ehtiram..
You are awesome, I watch your video once for your expression and second time focus on the recipe... I shall master this dough recipe... Thank You so much! 😍🥰😘🙌
Thank you so much for the kind words. Hoping to be able to make more content a bit more regularly. My work schedule can make it difficult but I am putting more energy toward this. Cheers :)
Nadia: "Become friends with the dough! The dough is about to do some really nice things for you" Nadia 1 hour later: *promptly punches the dough* Talking seriously now, this is amazing, thank you sooo much for this recipe!
Yes! It's so fun to make the dough yourself HOWEVER If you are lazy on the dough you can also buy from your local pizzeria and bake it dry on top. Works like a charm!
I can't! I don't make my zaatar, I leave it to the masters and buy Palestinian Zaatar from Jenin. One day I might learn to make my own blend when I grow my own thyme, but at this point, I know it wouldn't compare- it is all about where the zaatar is grown and I have no desire to make it using herbs bought from a supermarket. I can say it's super important to buy high quality zaatar. Look for Lebanese and Palestinian brands and check where it is sourced from, and look at how vibrant the color is for freshness. (most American grocery stores are not the place for this) Try Z&Z, they are a great Palestinian brand based in DC and they deliver- or try your local Arabic grocery and ask about it.
Thank you for your recipe. And step by step guidance. I made it today with help of my wife. It turned out to be very delicious. My wife is very happy. And I have given permission and budget to make it often. She has clicked some pictures which I don't know how to post here. Marra taniya, Shukran Jidden. Wa Sahtein....
My Grandmother made Saffron Bread at Christmas. The spice is super expensive for a really small amount where I live. In fact it is only available in December. Do you know how to make it? Her's had walnuts and maybe Yellow Raisins???
This is great and hilarious too. I love mana'eesh but never really had the chance to make much of it. What better but a Mason jar to keep zaatar? Same here, stored in a quart jar in the cabinet.
I am confused..some say place the tray in the oven to make it hot THEN place the flattened dough(with zaatar)on it using the egg spatula and they also say middle to top shelf ....but I do it like you do...
@@NadiaGilbert oops I already made it and... turned out great! Also works with baking powder (need this because I do cooking lessons in prisson which last 1 hour :-).
I think I'm in love with this girl. Such a sense of freedom to express who she is and what she loves. What an inspiration! And the food! I get hangry watching these videos. If you're reading this Nadia, keep making these videos. Enrich us all with this content.
you don't need to add milk, you can use a plant based milk or none at all! It just affects the texture in a nice way but it definitely can be left out. I haven't tried yogurt with it.
You rocked this girl! Love the Palestinian pottery and that mana'eesh looked divine! You gotta punch the dough, to wake it up lol!
Yes! Wake it up!! Thank you Blanche
I keep watching this and I have made it so many times. Thank you so much. 🥰
Thank you for sharing this, Nadia. This is now a staple in my life and I am very grateful. I can’t believe Za’atar hasn’t always been part of my life! Keep the great videos coming!
Palestinian food is yummy for my tummy.
Best Of Mana'eesh Recipes. Thanks.

It took me ages to find your recipe again!! Saving your channel now. Hello from Ukraine! LOve your video :)
So excited! Truly! Just made the Shatta and now this! Baking as we speak!
Omg this is SO GOOD! How have I lived all this time without zaatar??
Ha ha. Same here. In fact, new year day 2024 I'm eating manakish right now! Cheers. And Power to Palestine.
@@donnavorce8856 awesome! I just recently bought a 1 kg bag of Palestinian zaatar to restock haha 🤝❤️🇵🇸

Yes! It's so fun to make the dough yourself HOWEVER If you are lazy on the dough you can also buy from your local pizzeria and bake it dry on top. Works like a charm!
I have tried to do Mana'eesh in the past but now I'm gonna try again after seeing this!

@@NadiaGilbert sure ;)
Im in spain...the world gone to shit..Im making mana2eesh tomorrow with your vid..thanks and salam !
Marhaba, from Lynchburg, VA. How about Ageen with Lahem, or sefiha? Thanks
Love this
Hi Nadia, love your videos, now show us how to make te Zaatar please :-)

excellent, thanKs NADIA
I LOVE res Zatar!!
One note , when making balls of dough you should cover them so as to keep moist and raising
Good point, I didn't mention that- but I did cover mine with a tea towel!
Can u show us how to make spinach pie?
Nice 👌🏻
cool video
Julia Child said that giving the risen dough a good PUNCH was among her favorite activities.
We have that in common ^_^
A mega mezze platter would be an awesome video
Thank you for your recipe. And step by step guidance. I made it today with help of my wife. It turned out to be very delicious. My wife is very happy. And I have given permission and budget to make it often. She has clicked some pictures which I don't know how to post here.
Marra taniya, Shukran Jidden. Wa Sahtein....
I am so glad to hear it, sahtein!
How about sharing Zaatar, recipe ?
My favorite food ever!
mine too!!
My Grandmother made Saffron Bread at Christmas. The spice is super expensive for a really small amount where I live. In fact it is only available in December. Do you know how to make it? Her's had walnuts and maybe Yellow Raisins???
Mmm I've never had it but sounds divine!
This might sound dumb lol but I have kodiak pancake flour (it’s the only one I have) can I use this
Love the recipes, big time surprised. Just curious, where is the Gilbert name from?
My dad is American, from the south. :)
Yum❣️ What will you make next?
Can you show us how you make Chicken and Cauliflower and Rice.
I think it is called “up side down”. Thank you.
Any requests? I have a video for a vegetarian Maqloubeh (means upside down in Arabic) on my channel! Thanks for watching :)
I love your voice
This is great and hilarious too. I love mana'eesh but never really had the chance to make much of it. What better but a Mason jar to keep zaatar? Same here, stored in a quart jar in the cabinet.
Can never have enough zaatar! thanks for watching! Give the dough a try, I promise it'll be great and is really simple once you do it once :)
@@NadiaGilbert thanks! I hopefully will have some time tomorrow. Two final research papers due O_O
I am confused..some say place the tray in the oven to make it hot THEN place the flattened dough(with zaatar)on it using the egg spatula and they also say middle to top shelf ....but I do it like you do...
Hello beautiful nadia how are you. Waiting for new fun video
Also , can U pls make the stuffed zucchini and tomatoes recipe
Stuffed zucchini is on the list!! Thank you for the suggestion! :)
I'd love to see how you make warak Diwali, every family has their own way😊
I'm confused. What's the difference between Manouche, Manakish, Pita, and Laffa?
so first, we wanna knead and treat the dough like it's our friend.
*proceeds to punch*
Can you use baking powder instead of yeast? You can make your own zaatar right?
Don’t make your own Zaatar! And no, baking powder and yeast are not the same
@@NadiaGilbert oops I already made it and... turned out great! Also works with baking powder (need this because I do cooking lessons in prisson which last 1 hour :-).
1:37 - 2:01 ❤👌
❤️❤️
Palastinians for life
You didn’t make videos for long time, are you back at?

Can you use yogurt or no dairy at all?
you don't need to add milk, you can use a plant based milk or none at all! It just affects the texture in a nice way but it definitely can be left out. I haven't tried yogurt with it.
