Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 350F.
- Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat and cook onions for one minute.
- Add meat and salt and break up into small pieces. Continue to cook over medium heat uncovered until cooked through.
- Add garlic and spices, stir and cook for one more minute. Add catsup and stir well. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Remove pizza dough from packaging and roll out thinly on a floured surface. Use a small 6 inch bowl to make a template into the dough. Cut circles out with a sharp knife. Dust well with flour and stack in a pile for easier assembly.
- In a small bowl add egg and water and whisk with a fork until combined, set aside.
- In each circle add 2-3 Tbs of filling. Brush the edge of the dough with the egg wash and start the fold. Fold two sides about 1/3 of the way, pinching the sides closed as you go. Then take the middle of the remaining side and bring toward the pinched edge making two new seams. Pinch the two new seams closed.
- Place all on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or sprayed with cooking spray.
- Brush all over with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds (white or black).
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Turn the baking sheet around half way through cooking.
- Remove from oven and rest for 5 minutes before serving.

FATAYER (LEBANESE MEAT PIES)
This is an old recipe my family brought with them from Lebanon at the turn of the last century.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add steak pieces, onions, parsley, salt, and pepper and cook until steak is browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Pat bread dough on a lightly floured surface into 4- to 5-inch rounds. Place about 2 tablespoons meat mixture on each dough round. Fold dough over the mixture to make a triangle. Pinch the edges of the dough together but make sure to leave the very center of the meat pie unsealed so steam can escape while cooking. Set on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough and meat mixture and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let rise for 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Bake fatayer in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 25 minutes.

MANA'EESH OR FATAYER BI ZAATAR
These very thin, soft breads, which you can roll up, are like Bedouin skillet breads. They work very well for me in a skillet, and I finish them under a broiler, but you can also bake them. For the topping, you can buy ready-made zaatar mixtures, which contain thyme and the tangy spice sumac, in Middle Eastern stores. You need only add olive oil. But it is easy enough to make your own zaatar mix at home. My favorite is simply thyme and sesame seeds with salt and olive oil. The quantities here make for a richer than usual topping. Serve the breads for breakfast, with labneh (see page 112), as a snack with a salad, or as an appetizer, cut into wedges.

Steps:
- Follow the instructions for making the bread dough.
- Mix the topping ingredients into an oily paste.
- After you have punched the dough down, divide into 3 or 4 balls and roll out one ball at a time, wrapping the remaining ones in plastic wrap. Roll out on a floured surface, with a floured rolling pin, to about 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into 2 1/2-inch rounds with a pastry cutter. Pick up the scraps, roll into balls, and flatten again to make more rounds. Now roll out each round as thinly as possible (the dough is very elastic and springs back), lifting it up, dusting the surface with flour, and turning the round over so that the dough does not stick. Then pull and stretch the dough with your hands until it is paper-thin and about 5-6 inches in diameter.
- Preheat the broiler. Lightly oil a skillet and place it over high heat. Taking one round of dough at a time, spread about 1 1/2 tablespoons of zaatar paste over its surface with your hand. When the skillet is very hot, turn the heat down as low as possible; then gently pick up the dough and lower it in. Cook for 2 minutes over low heat in the skillet, then put under the broiler (about 3 inches from the heat) for about 1 minute, until the top is browned. Continue with the remaining rounds of dough and zaatar paste, rubbing the skillet with an oiled paper towel between rounds.
- Alternatively, if you want to bake the breads, place on lightly greased baking sheets, spread the paste over each round, and bake in a preheated 450°F oven for 5-10 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- Place in plastic bags (with toppings facing each other) to keep them soft. They keep for several days and also freeze well.
- Serve hot or warm.
- For a hot chili bread, instead of zaatar use as a topping 1/2 cup olive oil mixed with 4 tablespoons dried chili flakes.
- For chickpea breads, fatayer bi hummus, a Lebanese Lenten specialty, press into the dough a handful of cooked chickpeas before baking. Omit the topping.

- Once the yeast has foamed and doubled in size, add salt, and half of the flour. Turn the mixer on low speed and slowly add the vegetable oil, rest of the milk and flour. Higher the speed and let knead until the dough comes together.

- Once the dough has doubled in size, form into 2 inch balls using excess flour. You should get about 18-24 dough balls. Cover with kitchen towel for another 30 min to rise again.
