Cherry, pistachio and feta fattoush

The lusciousness of cherries plays nicely with the sharpness of sumac here. You can toast the bread until crispy, if you prefer.

Ingredients

  • 250ml sunflower or vegetable oil
  • 2 large flatbreads or pitta breads, halved lengthways
  • 1 lemon, juice
  • 2 tsp sumac
  • 100ml extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 300g Cherries, halved
  • 10 radishes, thinly sliced
  • 25g pack flat leaf parsley, roughly chopped
  • 25g pack mint, leaves finely chopped
  • 125g feta, crumbled
  • 40g pistachio kernels, roughly chopped

Method

  1. Heat the sunflower or vegetable oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat and, when hot, fry the flatbreads, in batches if needed, for 3-4 minutes, until golden, then drain on a plate lined with kitchen paper.

  2. In a bowl, make the dressing by combining the lemon juice with a pinch of salt and ¼ tsp sumac; whisk in the olive oil, then set aside. In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, cherries and radishes; season and set aside for 20 minutes. When ready to serve, add the herbs, feta and pistachios to the lettuce mixture. Break the fried bread into rough pieces and add to the bowl with the dressing. Toss together, transfer to a platter and sprinkle with the remaining sumac.

And to drink...

A balanced and refreshing pairing for feta, with an acidity and fruitiness to complement the cheese’s salty, tangy flavours.
