Salad:

1 large head romaine lettuce (chopped)
1 large vine-ripe tomato (diced)
2-3 cucumbers (quartered)
1/2 large green pepper
5 radishes (diced)
2 green onions (sliced)
1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley
1 seedpad radish microgreens

Dressing:

3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 garlic cloves (pressed or grated)
1 teaspoon sumac (can be replaced with Za'atar)
1 teaspoon pomegranate molasses (swap with Balsamic Vinegar if not available)
1/2 teaspoon dried mint
1/2 teaspoon salt
freshly cracked black pepper

Fried Pita Bread:

1 large double ply pita bread (cut into pieces)
3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt & Pepper

Preparation:

Dressing:

Combine the lemon juice, garlic, sumac, pomegranate molasses, dried mint, salt, and pepper. Whisk the mixture together until well blended. Gradually pour in the olive oil while whisking continuously until the ingredients are thoroughly combined. Set the mixture aside.
Fry the Pita:

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the pita bread in the skillet and season it with salt and pepper. Cook while stirring regularly until the pita bread turns crispy and attains a golden color, which typically takes around 5 to 7 minutes. Set the cooked pita bread aside.
In a spacious serving bowl, arrange the lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, radishes, green onions, parsley and radish microgreens. Drizzle the dressing over the ingredients and gently toss to thoroughly mix everything together.
Add the fried pita bread to the salad right before the serving.
