Lavender Honey Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Carrots with Zaatar
When I used to live in Dubai, I fell in Love with Za’atar. An herb blend used a lot in their cuisine and all around Middle East.
But first what is Za’atar? Za’atar is a blend of herbs primarily made of Oregano, Thyme, Marjoram and Sesame Seeds. I have found this very interesting article on the Bon Appetit Magazine which you can read HERE.
I was largely inspired by the recipe from Massiel, an incredible photographer (@mzcuisine). She has a “je ne sais quoi” to capture food like you have never seen before.
Enjoy & Bon Appetit!
As always, you will find the Step-by-Step Video below the recipe.
