Recipe Notes
Note 1: To make homemade lavash chips, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Brush the lavash on both sides with olive oil until slick but not dripping. Place the lavash pieces on a baking sheet and bake until golden and crisp like a cracker, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven to cool, then break into bite-sized pieces. Note 2: This recipe was inspired by the delicious Fattoush salad at Beirut Knightsbridge restaurant of London.
