Fatteh (Arabic: فتّة‎‎ meaning crushed or crumbs, also romanized as fette, fetté, fatta or fattah) is a class of southern Levantine dishes consisting of pieces of fresh, toasted, or stale flatbread covered with other ingredients. It may also be called shâmiyât (شاميات 'Damascene').

  • Levant: The Levantine "Fetté", eaten in breakfasts as well as in the evenings, always starts with a stack of khubz bread, topped by strained yogurt, steamed chickpeas and olive oil that are crushed and mixed together. In the next step, a teaspoon of cumin is almost always poured into the mixture. After that, virtually anything can be added to the bowl. Some fettés are made of eggplants and julienned carrots topped with grilled chicken and pine kernels while some contain lamb shanks, different spices and yogurt. The fattoush is a salad made with toasted pieces of pita bread that technically also falls into the family of "shâmiyât".
  • Palestine: "Fetté Gazzewié" from Gaza, is served as plain rice cooked in meat or chicken broth and then flavored with mild spices, particularly cinnamon. The rice is then laid over a thin markook bread which is in turn smothered in clarified butter and topped with various meats. Musakhan is also a fetté dish .
  • Egypt: Egyptians also prepare and consume a dish called "fatta" as a feast meal. Considered a traditional Nubian dish, it is prepared on special occasions, such as to celebrate a woman's first pregnancy or for an Iftar during Ramadan. It is made with a garlic and vinegar flavored meat soup and crispy flatbread served in a bowl with rice and a sauce consisting of molokhia.
