This pure, authentic blend of wild thyme, toasted sesame seeds and tangy sumac is za'atar as it has always been, earthy, aromatic and full of character.

In Lebanon, za'atar isn't just a spice... It's a ritual that marks the passage of time, spent sharing a meal. A pinch over eggs in the morning. A handful mixed with oil before the bread goes in. The flavour that connects one generation's kitchen to the next. Our dry blend gives you that same depth, with the freedom to use it your way.

Old flavours. New rituals. Made for both.

Za’atar Crusted Roast Lamb with Garlic Toum

Few dishes speak of celebration quite like a slow-roasted leg of lamb. Fragrant with za’atar, garlic and sumac, this centrepiece draws on the flavours that have graced Lebanese tables for generations. Roasted over aromatic herbs, sweet onions and lemon, then served with cooling toum or yogurt and jewels of fresh pomegranate, it is a dish made for gathering.. generous, comforting and worthy of sharing with family and friends.

Prep 20 mins (plus marinating)

Cook 1 hr 15 mins

Serves 6–8

Ingredients

2kg Leg of Lamb (preferably bone in)
6 tbsp Eid Pantry Premium Za’atar Premix
2 tbsp Eid Pantry Ground Sumac
4 cloves Garlic, grated
Sea Salt & Cracked Black Pepper
2 Red Onions, quartered
1 Head of Garlic, halved crosswise
3-4 Sprigs of Fresh Rosemary
1 Lemon sliced into thick rounds
Toum or a thick, lemon-heavy Greek yogurt
Fresh Pomegranate

Method

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the Za’atar premix, sumac, grated garlic, salt, and pepper until it forms a thick, gritty paste.
2. Pat the lamb dry with paper towels. Using a sharp knife, score the fat in a diamond pattern—this allows the za'atar to penetrate deep into the meat. Massage the herb paste all over the lamb, ensuring every crevice is covered.
3. Let the lamb marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour before roasting. This ensures an even cook and a better crust. In a heavy roasting pan, create a "trivet" using the onions, the halved head of garlic, rosemary, and lemon slices. Rest the lamb directly on top of these aromatics.
4. Preheat your oven to 200°C. Roast the lamb for 15 minutes to "set" the crust, then reduce the heat to 170°C. For Medium-Rare: Cook until the internal temperature reaches 54°C (approx. 25-30 minutes per 500g). Transfer the lamb to a warm wooden board. Tent loosely with foil and let it rest for 20–30 minutes. This is non-negotiable for a professional result; it keeps the meat succulent and prevents the juices from running when sliced.
