Spring Roll recipe this zaatar is Mediterranean-inspired appetizers baking ovens that savory, crunchy & is very easy to make with an egg dumpling Wrapper.

Growing up in a family of Lebanon, we love eating sambousek cheese cake, which was a popular stuffed fried and wonderful. When we moved to the US, my mother began to embrace alternatives to traditional food-fried, and we pretty much never do any frying in my home ever since. It is something that we enjoyed when they were in the restaurant but not so much at home.

I remember when my mother first bought the egg roll wrappers from the store and making Chinese-inspired spring rolls. Then at other times he's missing a few ingredients and make some more, and again substitute a replacement until we started calling their surprise roll!

Ingredients

• 16 oz halloumi cheese or Syrian cheese soft white cheese like Ackawi
• 16 square 7-inch egg roll wrappers (I use Nasoya)
• 1 small bunch mint leaves roughly chopped
• 1/4 cup zaatar
• Small bowl of water for sealing edges
• Olive oil or cooking spray for coating
• Labneh yogurt cheese for serving (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cut the halloumi or other white cheese block into slices about the size of your thumb.
3. Arrange the egg roll wrappers on a dry cutting board or other working surface, and position them at an angle so that the corner of each wrapper is closest to you.
4. Place a slice of the cheese at an angle in the lower third of each spring roll wrapper, and sprinkle with the fresh mint. Dab your fingers in the bowl of water and rub it around the edges.
5. Beginning at the bottom angle closest to you, roll the wrapper up and fold the edges inward along the way. Roll the wrapper shut, adding a dab of extra water if needed. Press lightly to seal the edges together.
6. Place the stuffed eggs rolls seam side down on the prepared baking dish, and repeat with the remaining wrappers until complete.
7. Brush the egg rolls lightly with olive oil or coat them with cooking spray, then sprinkle the zaatar spice.
8. Bake in the preheated oven until they are golden brown and crisped on the outside, about 15 minutes.
9. Serve with labneh yogurt cheese, if desired.
