Fattoush Pita And Pomegranate Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Slice the pitas in half to make 4 thin rounds. Place the pitas on a nonstick sheet pan. Brush with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt.
• Bake for about 5 minutes, until the outside is golden brown. Let cool until they become crispy.
• Make 3 cuts lengthwise on each of the romaine hearts, remove the stems, and chop into smaller pieces. Rinse, drain, and add to a large salad bowl.
• Seed the cucumber, dice it, and add it to the salad bowl.
• Cut the tomatoes in half and add them to the salad bowl.
• Mince the scallions and add them to the salad bowl.
• Add the radishes, bell pepper, parsley, and mint to the salad bowl and toss to combine.
• In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine the remaining ½ cup (120 ml) of oil, the lemon juice, white wine vinegar, garlic, sumac, allspice, salt, and pepper and whisk until well-combined.
• Pour the dressing over the salad.
• Break the crispy pitas into small pieces and add to the salad. Toss well.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cut the pita bread into 1 1/2-inch strips, then rotate 90 degrees and cut again so you end up with small pieces.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the pita until golden brown and crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the fried pita to a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb any excess oil and set aside.
• Place the romaine, radishes, green onions, cucumbers, red onions, peppers, tomatoes, mint and parsley in a large bowl, then gently toss together.
• Whisk together the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, pomegranate molasses, sumac, garlic and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss until evenly combined.
• Add the fried pita and gently toss the salad one more time. Taste and add more salt, if needed.

Steps:

• Mix together the tomatoes, cucumbers, green onions, peppers, and mint together in a salad bowl.
• Add the lemon peel and lemon juice and toss well; add the oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Split the toasted pitas, and rub the rough sides with the garlic; tear the pita into small pieces and add to the salad.
• Remove the seeds from the pomegranate, (being careful not to stain your clothing with the juice) and add to the salad and discard the peel and the pith.
• Toss the salad well, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Separate pita into 2 rounds, and bake on cookie sheet for about 5 minutes, or until very crisp but not browned.
• Put tomato, red onion, peppers, cucumber, radishes and scallions into large salad bowl. Add romaine or purslane and fresh mint, and sprinkle with sumac and dried mint. Toss.
• Whisk together garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, pomegranate syrup, and salt and pepper in a small bowl. Just before serving, give dressing another quick whisk and then pour it over vegetables and toss.
• Break pita into 1-inch pieces and toss with salad, just before taking salad to table. Taste, add seasonings if needed, and serve immediately.
