1- Roast 2 large aubergines and 2 long red peppers over an open flame until their skins char nicely this takes about 25 minutes and gives that incredible smoky taste. Once done, let them cool a bit before peeling, deseeding, and chopping them up.

2- Next, mix up the dressing in a bowl: combine 80 ml extra virgin olive oil, 2 crushed garlic cloves, 2 teaspoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon sumac, and 3 tablespoons pomegranate molasses. Add most of the seeds from 1 pomegranate to this mixture for a burst of sweetness.

3- Then, toss in the chopped aubergines, red peppers, 3 large chopped tomatoes, and a bunch of chopped parsley, making sure everything coats evenly.

4- After tossing well, garnish with the remaining pomegranate seeds and some extra parsley, and top with feta cheese if you like. This step-by-step process ensures the flavors meld beautifully, creating a salad that’s as tasty as it is visually appealing. It’s a great way to enjoy a healthy meal that feels like a treat.
