Ingredients
- 2 pita breads broken in small pieces
- 1 English cucumber chopped
- 1 green bell pepper chopped
- 3 medium tomatoes chopped small
- 6 green onions chopped
- ½ cup radishes sliced
- ⅓ cup parsley fresh, chopped
- 2 tablespoons mint finely chopped
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ½ teaspoon pepper or to taste
- 1 tablespoon sumac
Instructions
- Break the pita bread into small pieces and fry them in some olive oil on the stove top. Take them out as soon as they are golden brown and crispy. Alternatively you can toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, sumac and place them under the broiler for a couple minutes until crispy.
- Chop up your veggies into small cubes and add to a large bowl. Chop the herbs finely and add this to the same bowl.
- In a small bowl whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and sumac together till thick.
- Toss together the dressing, salad and pita chips. Serve up!
Notes
- Pita Chips: If you prefer a healthier version, you can bake the pita chips instead of frying them. Just toss them in a little olive oil and bake until crispy.
- Dressing: If you make the dressing ahead of time, give it a good whisk or shake before adding it to the salad to make sure all the flavors are well-combined.
- Leftovers: This dish is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store the pita separately to maintain its crunch.
- Sumac Substitute: Can't find sumac? A bit of lemon zest can work in a pinch.
- Gluten-Free: Easily make this dish gluten-free by using gluten-free pita bread or croutons.
