Fattet Hummus (Chickpea Fatteh)
Hummus fatteh, or fattet hummus, is a vegetarian savory chickpea bread pudding. It's a delicious mess of fried bread, garlicky yogurt, and some other garnishes.
Servings: 8
- 2½ cups yogurt about 600 grams
- 2 cups cooked chickpeas
- 4 pita bread
- 6 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- ¼ cup tahini
- 5 cloves smashed garlic
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoon ghee or olive oil
- pomegranate seeds parsley, and pine nuts for garnish
Start by cutting the bread into little squares. Fry until golden, and set aside.
Mix the yogurt with the smashed garlic, tahini, lemon juice, cumin, and salt.
Assemble the layers in your serving dish: starting with the fried pita bread, then the chickpeas, then the yogurt mixture, and garnish with pomegranates, more chickpeas, and parsley.
Fry the pine nuts in ghee or olive oil and pour on top. Serve immediately.
- Don't make more than you'll eat; leftovers don't keep well.
- Pour the pine nuts and the ghee they were frying in at the end over the fattet hummus.
