To start making the millet cheese rolls, preheat the oven to 200°C and grease a baking sheet with butter.
We first boil the millet in 3/4 cup of water until soft. The millet should have absorbed all the water. If there is any excess water, pour it away and you can use it to make soup.
NOTE: Millets are just like lentils or bulgur, you have to cook them in a similar way.
In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and stir well to combine. Set aside the millet cheese filling.
Use a rolling pin to spread the bread slices out a little so we can easily roll out the bread and its fillings. Place a spoonful of the millet cheese mixture in the middle, moisten the edges with a little water and roll up tightly. Press and seal the edges and trim off the excess. Place the millet and cheese rolls on a greased baking sheet. Do the same with the remaining bread slices.
To get a crusty top, dip the rolls in melted butter and roll them in the za'atar spice mixture. Do the same with the remaining rolls and place them on a greased baking sheet.
Place the rolls in the preheated oven and bake until the crust is golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes.
