Method

1. Stir the quark and the cottage cheese together with the lemon juice and half the oil, just enough to loosen them. Leave it soft and a little curdy; it should not be smooth.
2. Halve the tomatoes and cut the cucumber into chunks.
3. Spread the cheese in a shallow bowl, pile the tomatoes, olives and cucumber on one side, and finish with the sumac, the pumpkin seeds, the herbs and the rest of the oil. Taste and salt if needed.
