Chickpea and pitta salad

Recipe by: Azmina Govindji

Be the first to review it!

This is based on fattoush, the popular salad enjoyed in the Lebanon and Syria, and it makes a satisfying main dish. It's important to grill the pitta bread until it is really crisp and golden or it will quickly become soggy when mixed with the other ingredients. The dressing adds the distinctive flavours of olives, anchovy and garlic.

Easy Low Fat Houmous

Recipe by: ELOVINGS

Reviews(6)

I make this houmous all the time. It only takes a few minutes to prepare, and it's healthier than shop-bought without the oil. Increase or decrease the ingredients as desired, especially the chillies! Serve with tortilla crisps, pitta triangles or fresh vegetables. Add more of the reserved chickpea liquid for a smoother dip.

Fattoush

Recipe by: WINNIFRED

Be the first to review it!

Toasted pitta bread pieces are tossed with crisp cos lettuce, spring onions, cucumber, fresh tomatoes and a flavourful Middle Eastern dressing in this salad. Sumac, a traditional spice, is available from Middle Eastern grocers. It may be left out of this salad, but I think the flavour is important to the overall taste.

Houmous with Spring Onions

If you only have one recipe for this wonderful dip, this is it. Everything goes into the food processor - chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, parsley and spring onion. Vary the flavour by adding a few chopped mint leaves, a little fresh ginger or dried chillies.

Lamb kebabs with fig rice

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Marinating is the key to success for these tender, juicy and sweet-tasting kebabs. Just half an hour will add delicious flavours to the lamb, although overnight is better if you have time. Serve with a leafy mixed salad, and a bowl of plain low-fat yogurt mixed with grated cucumber and chopped fresh mint and flat-leaf parsley.
