👨🍳 Ohjeet

Prepare the pita: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Cut or tear the pita bread into bite-sized pieces. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp. Watch carefully to prevent burning. Once toasted, remove from oven and set aside.
⏱️ 10-12 minutes - 2
Warm the chickpeas: If using canned chickpeas, drain and rinse them thoroughly. Place the drained chickpeas in a small saucepan with a splash of water (about 2-3 tablespoons) or a little olive oil. Heat gently over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes, or until warmed through. Avoid overcooking, as they should retain some texture.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 3
Make the yogurt sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, tahini, minced garlic, and fresh lemon juice. Whisk vigorously until smooth and creamy. If the sauce is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water, one at a time, until it reaches a pourable consistency. Season with salt to taste. Set aside.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Toast the pine nuts: In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the pine nuts and cook, stirring constantly, for 2-4 minutes, or until they are fragrant and golden brown. Be very careful, as pine nuts can burn quickly. Remove from heat immediately once toasted.
⏱️ 3-5 minutes - 5
Assemble the Fatteh: To serve, place the toasted pita pieces in the bottom of a shallow serving dish or individual bowls. Spoon the warm chickpeas evenly over the pita. Drizzle the creamy yogurt-tahini sauce generously over the chickpeas. Finally, spoon the butter-fried pine nuts (along with the butter) over the top as a garnish.
