In a bowl combine yeast, sugar and lukewarm water.

Cover and keep aside for 10 minutes

In another wide mixing bowl take refined flour, salt and oil.

Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture and mix to form a dough

Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes until the dough is elastic and smooth.

Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with damp cloth or cling/wrap film. Leave it for 1 and 1/2 hour until dough doubles in size.

When the dough has doubled, take it on a work surface and punch down to remove the air.

Divide the dough into equal parts and shape into balls. Again cover these balls for 20 to 30 minutes for a second rise.

On a floured surface flatten each ball with a rolling pin to approximately 6" diameter discs.Place the discs on a baking tray.

Preheat oven to 220 degrees Celsius. Combine Zaatar mix and olive oil to make the topping.

Spread zaatar-oil mix on one half and cheese on the other half of each flattened disc leaving 1/2" border all around.

Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes until golden.Serve hot
