Fattoush
Fattoush recipes have been around for centuries and are believed to originate in the Levant region. The dish is traditionally made with bread, vegetables, and herbs, and is typically served as a starter or side dish.
Fattoush is thought to date back to the days of the Ottoman Empire, when the dish was known as kunafeh. It was made with thin sheets of dough that were filled with cheese and fried. Over time, the dish evolved and the dough was replaced with bread.
The bread used in fattoush is typically pita bread, which is why the dish is also sometimes referred to as pita fattoush. The bread is cut into small pieces and then fried or baked. The vegetables and herbs used in the dish vary depending on region and personal preference, but common ingredients include tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, mint, and parsley.
Advice
When making fattoush, be sure to use freshly-made pita bread. This will give the dish its signature texture and flavor. Additionally, slicing the vegetables into small pieces will help ensure that they stay crunchy and vibrant. Finally, make sure to use plenty of herbs and spices, as these will add depth and flavor to the dish. If you have time, try toasting the pita bread to add even more flavor.
