Thanks for this, making it tonight - mmmmmm.

We were on vacation until today but, if you are still interested, I think you could do this w/o a pressure cooker - easily. The pressure cooker is only used b/c it is super fast to getting that fall-off-the-bone meat thing w/o braising for hours. I actually highly (HIGHLY) recommend buying a pressure cooker b/c it is extremely versatile. But, if you would prefer to not get one, then just braise the meat on a simmer for about 4 hours (or more) with the lid on. I also list in the recipe you could put it in a slow cooker if you have one of those. The point is, you need to get this meat tender. It needs to be able to shred and in order for a cut like stewing meat to be tender, it needs alot of cooking to break it down. Hope this helps!

I don't have one, and I know it'd be another kitchen gadget I never use... like that rice cooker I was given in 2003 and have never once plugged in. But I'm DESPERATE for some fatteh, and your recipe sounds amazing. Thanks for any tips :) Hi there,

I went to Lebanese Taverna a few days ago with my husband and tried Fatteh Blahmeh for the first time, and loved it. Tonight I tried your recipe and it was a phenomenal success! You got it 100%, it tasted exactly like the other night in the restaurant. Thank you again!! Elena Thank you Amy for posting this wonderful recipe.
