Pass it through a sieve to remove any grains. The liquid should be like thin soured cream.
Slice the onion into rings and fry it in oil until golden, ten minutes.
Tear the fatir into large pieces into a wide dish.
Pour the qurut over the bread and leave it five minutes to soak.
Top with the fried onion and its oil, then the tomato, cucumber and herbs.
