Fattoush: Middle Eastern Pita Bread Salad Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by Talk2usoon

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pita bread, toasted until well browned, cut or broken into 1/2-inch squares
2 medium tomatoes, diced (we used 2 cups small, cherry-sized heirlooms and cut them into halves)
1/2 cucumber, diced
2 tablespoon minced red onion
1 generous handful fresh cilantro leaves
1 generous handful fresh mint leaves, julienned the leaves
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
Freshly ground black pepper
Ground sumac, for garnish

Steps:

  • Combine tomatoes, cucumber, onion, cilantro , mint, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and several grinds of black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning; you may need more olive oil, lemon juice, salt, or pepper. Just before serving, add the toasted pita, it doesn't become soggy. from Herbivoracious, the cookbook from Michael Natkin
