Lebanese Fattoush Salad Recipe - How to Make Lebanese Fattoush Salad

The Lebanese Recipes Kitchen presents Lebanese fattoush salad recipe, an authentic salad dish from Lebanon. Enjoy Lebanese food cooking recipes and learn how to make the best Lebanese fattoush summer salad dish. Easy and tasty vegetarian salad.

Ingredients (serves 4)

2 wholemeal pocket pita bread
1/4 cup (60ml) extra virgin olive oil
2 tsp sesame seeds
2 tsp black sesame seeds
Sea salt flakes
2 Lebanese cucumbers
200g punnet grape tomatoes
2 radishes, trimmed, thinly sliced
1 cup mint leaves
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley
1 tbs lemon juice
Sumac, to sprinkle

Method

1. 1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Place pita bread on an oven tray. Brush both sides with 1 tbs of the oil and sprinkle with combined sesame seeds. Sprinkle with salt flakes. Bake in oven, turning once during cooking, for 5-7 minutes or until golden and crisp. Remove from heat and set aside to cool. Break up into large pieces.
2. 2. Use a vegetable peeler to cut the cucumbers into ribbons. Arrange the cucumber, tomatoes, radish, mint, parsley and pita on a large serving platter. Combine the lemon juice and remaining oil in a small jug. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle over the salad and sprinkle with sumac. Serve immediately.

Notes

Note: Sumac is the fruit of a shrub that grows in the Mediterranean and Middle East. The tangy, lemony spice is used as a rub for meats, sprinkled over salads or mixed with olive oil to make a simple dip.

Variation: Fattoush is a traditional Middle-Eastern salad. You can also add good-quality sheep's feta and kalamata olives, and for a slightly different flavour, try replacing parsley with coriander.
