Classical Toppings

• Thyme (Arabic: زعتر, za'atar). The most popular one has thyme topping, which is served for breakfast with vegetables and/or red tea. The thyme itself is a vegetarian nutrient obtained from ground thyme leaves, and this powder with tiny edible sesame seeds is mixed with olive oil to finalize the paste to put on the dough.

• Cheese (Arabic: جبنة, jubna). Another type has Halloum cheese toppings instead, but it is a bit more expensive than the thyme manakish. However, it is tastier and can be served in the same manner as the thyme manakish.

• Minced Beef (Arabic: لحم بعجين, laham ba'ajiyn, "meat in dough"). Other manakish are served for lunch because of their heavy contents. This popular manakish has beef topping. The minced beef is mixed with tiny pieces of diced tomato and vegetable oil, and this manakish is optionally served with ground pepper or, especially in Lebanon, pickles and lemon juice.

• Chilli (Arabic: فليفلة or حر).
