Step 1

Let's start by setting the oven to 350°F (180°C) in fan mode. Slice the pita bread as to separate the two halves. Then, cut or shred the pita in smaller squares or triangle shapes (slightly bigger than tortilla chips, to give you an idea).Toss the bits of bread with the given oil and spices until evenly coated. Then, place the bread in the preheated oven and cook for 10 minutes - 5 minutes per side. Now is also a good time to toast the seeds if you don't already have them at hand. You can do so in the oven while it's still hot, or in a skillet.

Step 2

Meanwhile, let's work on the meat layer.If you are using canned corned/salted beef, discard any juices in the tin and do not add any additional salt during cooking.Slice your chosen meat thinly and add to a preheated skillet with the oil, crushed garlic and spices. Add salt and pepper if needed and according to taste.Cook on high temperature until the meat gets slightly charred and crispy. Once ready, remove from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.

Step 3

Next, let's work on the yogurt mixture.Toss the canned chickpeas in the skillet with the oil, the crushed garlic and the parsley. Cook them for 3-5 minutes on high heat, just enough for them to soak in the seasoning. Now, let them cool down to room temperature and mix them with the yogurt and lemon juice.

Step 4

Now that everything is ready, bring all the ingredients to the table in different pots and let your guests assemble the fatteh to retain maximum crunchiness! The order is like this: bread at the bottom;then a sprinkle of beef on topa splash of yogurt and chickpeas mix;and finally the toasted seeds mix and fresh parsley.Enjoy!
