👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Tear pita bread into bite-sized pieces. Fry the pieces in a tablespoon of olive oil until golden brown and crispy, then set aside on paper towels to drain excess oil.
2. Wash and chop romaine lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, radishes, and green bell pepper into bite-sized pieces. Finely chop fresh mint, parsley, and spring onions.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, fresh lemon juice, sumac, pomegranate molasses, salt, and black pepper.
4. In a large salad bowl, combine all the chopped vegetables and fresh herbs. Pour the dressing over the salad.
5. Just before serving, add the fried pita bread pieces to the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately to maintain the crispness of the pita.
