This dish is usually eaten with bread (Pita).
I found that certain ingredients like; oil (olive, corn.. etc.)vinegar, lemon juice, black pepper, cumin, salt, tomatoes, onions (spring, white, red .. etc.), parsley, shatta (dry, fresh) form the basis of most recipes.
Take your pick and mix it in any way you want depending on your mode and availability.
Having said that we should not forget taheena and eggs. I am getting hungry here. Ummmm!!!
