Fattoush salad

Look no further! This is the perfect salad: fresh cucumber, ripe tomatoes, tons of fresh parsley and mint, crispy homemade flat bread croutons and a tangy lemony garlicky dressing… Yes, it is. Perfect.

Here's how you can make Fattoush.



INGREDIENTS (for 4 people):
for the salad
- 1 small head of romaine salad
- 1 cucumber
- 1 large handful of cherry tomatoes
- 1 sweet green pepper
- a bunch of flat leaf parsley
- a bunch of fresh mint
- 1 loaf of Khoubiz or any flat bread like a pita (click here for a recipe)
for the dressing
- juice of 1 lemon
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 big clove of garlic
- a pinch of salt (to taste)


RECIPE:
- this recipe is so simple! Just chop all the salad ingredients (except the bread) and arrange in a serving bowl

- break the flat bread into bite sized pieces and toast them until crispy and sprinkle over the salad

- prepare the dressing: combine all the ingredients in a bowl and using a stick blender, mix until emulsified, pour over the salad and toss

- Enjoy!
