Fattoush salad
Fattoush is a Levantine bread salad made from toasted or fried pieces of pita bread, vegetables and herbs. It is popular in Lebanon, Syria, Palestine, Jordan, and other Arab countries.
The word fattoush comes from the Arabic word fatt, which means to break up or crumble. The salad is typically made with stale pita bread that is cut or torn into small pieces and then fried or toasted.
The bread is the key ingredient in the salad and is what gives it its name. Other ingredients typically include tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, mint, parsley, and sumac. The salad is usually dressed with a vinegar and oil dressing, and sometimes lemon juice is added as well.
