I had been on the look out for a different topping to my pizza base, instead of the usual pizza toppings, with the pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese etc. This was something I had to try when I upon it. It turned out ok. i need to tweak the recipe as i found it a bit bland. Laced punch.. I blended the feta with the tahini sauce, red chilli flakes and garlic. Topped with zaater, tomato slices and red / yellow capsicum.

All great flavors in this pizza. The za'atar is really good on it, I wouldn't leave it out (or at least sub thyme, oregano and sesame seeds). We couldn't taste the tahini as much as we thought we would be able to for the amount added. Used less feta (maybe 1/4 the amount) and topped the pizza with raw heirloom tomatoes, so they would retain more of their taste. Made for a nice meal!
