   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   200                g  all-purpose flour
   50                 g  whole wheat flour
   30                 g  young starter
   1                     egg -- if you don't want you can skip this
   5                  g  salt
   160                g  water
   1         tablespoon  black sesame seeds
   2        tablespoons  Zatar spice -- (or else you can take dried 
oregano with roasted white sesame )
   1         tablespoon  olive oil -- or butter

In a bowl mix the all purpose flour, whole wheat flour and water. 
Autolyse for one hour.

After autolyse add the starter, salt, oil and Zatar spices. Mix well 
everything and keep aside for 30 mins. Do one set of stretch and fold 
after 30 mins. After last stretch and fold keep the dough in the 
fridge overnight (temperature should be between 7 to 8C degrees) or 
for 12 hours in the fridge.

Remove the dough from the fridge after overnight fermentation in the 
fridge and let the dough rise 40%.

Once the dough has risen scrape from all sides and put over parchment 
paper smooth side up and rough portion down.

Grease your palm with oil spread the dough into round shape with 
thickness of 2". Spread an egg wash on the top of the dough and with 
the tip of your fingers make few crisscross lines and sprinkle black 
sesame seeds over it and if you want you can sprinkle Zatar too.

Now place this dough with help of parchment paper in your pre heated oven

At 220C/430F and bake for 15 mins at this temperature then reduced 
the temperature to 190C/375F and bake for more 10 mins. While baking 
ensure that you are not opening the door of the oven.

Cut it once it cools down completely or next day.

I usually steam the slices for few minutes to make them softer before eating.
