Sumac is available at Middle Eastern food stores. It may be left out of this salad, but the flavor to me is important to the overall taste. Ingredients:
2 pita breads |
8 leaves romaine lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces |
2 green onions, chopped |
1 cucumber, chopped |
3 tomatoes, cut into wedges |
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley |
1 clove garlic, peeled and chopped |
2 tablespoons sumac powder |
1/4 cup lemon juice |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper |
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint leaves |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Toast pitas 5 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until crisp. Remove from heat, and break into bite size pieces.
3. In a large bowl, toss together toasted pita pieces, romaine lettuce, green onions, cucumber, and tomatoes.
4. In a small bowl, mix the parsley, garlic, sumac powder, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, and mint. Pour over the pita mixture, and toss just before serving.
