SERVES 4

Ingredients

3 tbsp pomegranate molasses
1 lemon, juiced
1 tsp soft brown sugar
2 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp cumin seeds
½ tsp chilli flakes
1 lb mixed red tomatoes, the rest roughly diced
3 oz pomegranate seeds
2  8oz blocks feta
olive oil
to serve flat-leaf parsley

STEP 1


Heat the oven to 400 degrees . Put the pomegranate molasses, lemon juice, sugar, ground coriander, half the cumin seeds, chilli flakes, tomatoes and pomegranate seeds in a bowl with some seasoning and toss together. Tip into a baking dish and cook for 15 minutes, until the tomatoes start to burst and give up their juice.

STEP 2


Halve the feta blocks, mix the remaining 1 tsp of cumin seeds with 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper and sprinkle over the feta. Put the feta into the baking dish, drizzle a little oil over, and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the feta is browning and the sauce is bubbling. Serve while still hot, scattered with chopped parsley, with plenty of warm bread and a green salad or vegetables.
