Description:

Akkawi cheese manakish is a traditional Middle Eastern dish that features flatbread topped with Akkawi cheese. The bread, often soft and slightly thick, is baked with a generous layer of Akkawi cheese, a mild, semi-soft cheese popular in countries like Lebanon, Syria, and Palestine. The cheese has a slightly salty flavor and a smooth, creamy texture when melted. Manakish, sometimes referred to as "Arab pizza," can also include additional toppings such as za'atar (a herb blend), olive oil, or vegetables. It is commonly served for breakfast or as a snack, enjoyed for its savory, comforting taste.88
