Deleted Hosted Zone of newly created domain by mistake

Hi, Kindly assist me on how to link a new hosted zone with my existing domain. I accidentally deleted the default one which was created automatically when I created the domain. After creating a new hosted zone with same name as my domain, I updated the NS record by replacing the default list of servers with list of servers which are attached to my domain. I didn't change the anything in SOA record. Now after creating a new record under the hosted zone (type A record) say test.mydomain.com when i test it through the dig command, the system doesn't show me the value i.e. a dummy IP that i assigned to this new record in the response. Please let me know how do i fix this issue
