Instructions
- 1
Split the simits open, cut the kashar cheese into small cubes, and chop the parsley.
- 2
Spread olive paste over the lower half of each opened simit, scatter the kashar cheese on top, sprinkle with thyme and black pepper, and close with the top half.
- 3
Heat a nonstick pan over medium-low heat and grease it with butter, then lay in the toasts.
- 4
Cook covered for 6 minutes, until both sides turn golden and the kashar melts.
6 min06:00 - 5
Transfer the toasts to a plate, slice in half, sprinkle parsley over the top, and serve hot.
💡 Tip: Do not press the knife down when splitting the simit; the inside separates without breaking the sesame crust. Cut the kashar into small cubes so it spreads evenly as it melts and does not spill out.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice the hot toasts in half, place them on a plate, sprinkle parsley on top, and serve with tomato slices and strong tea.
