Instructions: To begin making the Millet Cottage Cheese Rolls, Preheat the oven to 200 C and grease a baking sheet with butter.We will first cook the millets with 3/4 cup of water until soft and mushy. The millets should have absorbed all the water. If there is any excess water, drain in and you could use it for soups.NOTE: Millets are like lentils or broken wheat and you have to cook them in a similar way. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients together and stir well to bring them all together. Keep the millet cheese filling aside.Using a rolling pin roll the bread slice to stretch it a bit this we do so we can roll the bread and its filling with ease. Place a spoon of the millet cheese mixture in the center, wet the edges with a little water and roll it up tightly. Press and seal the edges and cut the excess away. Place the millet and cheese rolls on the greased baking sheet. Proceed the same way with the remaining slices of bread.To get crusty top dip the rolls in the melted butter, then roll this over the zaatar spice mix. Proceed the same way with the remaining rolls and place them on a greased baking sheet.Place the rolls in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 to 20 minutes until the crust turns golden brown in color.
