Egyptian Fatteh is a layered dish featuring crispy pita bread, tender spiced beef, and fluffy rice, all brought together with a tangy tomato-garlic sauce. The pita is fried in butter until golden, then seasoned with garlic and cumin for an extra aromatic kick. Beef is slow-cooked until it's fork-tender, and the rich broth is used to moisten the bread and rice layers. A quick-fried beef topping and a bright red sauce finish the dish.
