Fattoush Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place pita pieces into the skillet without crowding. Fry in batches until golden brown and blot dry with paper towels.
• Combine cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, parsley, mint, olive oil, lemon juice, sumac, garlic, salt, and ground black pepper in a bowl. Gently toss salad with fried pita pieces. Grate feta cheese on top using a small cheese grater.

Steps:

• Bring the bulgur and 1 cup water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Reduce the heat to a low simmer, cover and cook until all the water is absorbed and the bulgur is tender and fluffy, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool completely.
• Put the oil, lemon zest and juice, vinegar, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small jar or container with a lid. Secure the lid, and shake to combine.
• Put the romaine, tomatoes, bell peppers, parsley, scallions, mint and cooked bulgur in a large bowl. Add the vinaigrette, and toss. Season to taste with salt and pepper

Steps:

• The night before, toss together all the salad ingredients except for the pitta bread and sumac. Make up the dressing and season to taste. Leave these separate until the morning.
• The next morning, toast the pitta breads until lightly golden. When cool, tear into pieces and combine with the salad and dressing. Spoon into 2 plastic boxes and sprinkle over the sumac.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Arrange pita breads in a single layer on an ungreased baking sheet; brush with oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake until crisp, 8-10 minutes, turning once. Cool. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss the lettuce, tomato, cucumber, green pepper, radishes, parsley and mint. Break toasted pitas into small pieces over salad. In a small bowl, whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Drizzle over salad; toss to coat.

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:

• Combine all of the salad ingredients in a glass bowl, toss and chill in the refridgerator for 20 minutes.
• Brush the pita bread lighty with olive oil and sprinkle with the desired amount of garlic salt. Toast in a 350 degree oven for 7-10 minutes until crisp, remove from oven and allow to cool. Once cooled, crumble into bite sized pieces.
