fattouche, Lebanese salad with grilled bread and vegetables

Fattouche

Le soleil est de retour par chez nous et il me tenait à coeur de vous présenter une recette de salade que j’adore, la fattouche. La fattouche ou fattouch est une salade d’origine libanaise avec du pain grillé, un peu comme la panzanella pour la version italienne.

Les ingrédients de la salade fattouche peuvent varier mais on y trouve généralement des tomates, cucumber, some salad, de l’oignon, parsley, du sumac, de l’huile d’olive et du pain grillé. Je vous présente ici une recette de fattouche à ma façon mais libre à vous de modifier la recette selon vos envies !

This is the opportunity or never to take advantage of the last cucumbers and the last tomatoes and bunches of radishes before autumn sets in. !

  • I often eat this salad when I go to a Lebanese restaurant., I would like to do the same at home but I can't find any sumac near me. Is there a site where you can order this kind of spices??
