I see Tzatziki in there! 😉 So, this is a savory parfait, I like it the idea. We’re on the same dining/eating wavelength. I just made an eggplant dish this evening too!

I love how healthy, beautiful, and delicious this recipe is! I don’t usually keep eggplant in the house (since my hubby doesn’t like it), but I’ll have to pick some up and make this just for me! 🙂

This is so yummy, Joumana. I usually prepare vegeterian Fatteh with chickpeas. i have never tried it with eggplant but I will definitely do so soon!! I add a tablespoon of tahine like they do in Tartous for an extra oomph to the garlicky yoghurt.
Cheers!

Wow! That looks so good – I am still at work and hungry, and I can imagine this would hit just the right spot!

Creative and pretty twist on one of my favorite dishes. Nice work, Joumana! By the way, have you seen “You Don’t Mess with the Zohan”? I ask, because in one of the scenes of the movie, the Zohan’s enemy is nicknamed “Fattoush.” LOL!

This looks too pretty to eat, but that’s never stopped me before.
Sam and I love fried eggplant, and I get the feeling Fatteh will also be a hit with us.

Ahh this is great! We always get lebanese bread in huge bags so we never quite finish it but this is a great way to use up those extra pieces! 😀

Sahtein… wala you remind me of this its been a long time since I madeit.
Your version is easier and simpler than mine, I do a tomato sauce with pomegranate juice, and also i add cubed meat fried and then cooked in the sauce… and decorate the top withground beef and pinenuts… It takes lots of time to prepare, take awesome though…I like this quick version… still have the basic flavours.
thanks for sharing

Jourmana, great usage of the pita bread, after seeing this recipe, I’ll go get a bag of pita bread just to make fatteh, love the idea of the crunchiness in between layers of yogurt 🙂 Nice pictures as well!

I really like the idea of using the stale bread…what would this be served with?

Another winner, this looks so refreshing for a nicy sunny day. I think I would grill the eggplants, everytime I fry eggplants I end up using too much oil, and they come out too soggy.
I have another blog award for you! Please stop by to pick it up!

The eggplant version sounds right up my alley – but then again, what isn’t made better with garlicky yogurt sauce and nuts!

On oscille entre le dessert et une lasagne sans savoir lequel choisir l’un et l’autre sont aussi attirant avec ces belles photos…
