#  Charred Tomatoes with Cool Yoghurt, Pomegranate Molasses and Herbs  


Hot, charred tomatoes in a pomegranate molasses dressing are tumbled on top of cool yogurt in this fresh dish. It's delicious served with fresh flatbreads or toasted sourdough to really make the most the pools of yogurt.

Total Time

 15 Minutes 

 



 

 

Ingredients

    1 garlic clove, crushed  

   300g of natural full fat yogurt  

   1kg of cherry tomatoes on the vine  

   Handful of mint leaves, chopped  

   Large handful of basil leaves, torn  

   Handful of pomegranate seeds  

 



  

 Dressing  


   2 tbsp of pomegranate molasses  

   2 tsp of za’atar  

   4 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling  

   3 tbsp of lemon juice  

   Sea salt, to taste  

 



  

 



Method

 Step 1 

Prepare a barbecue for direct cooking over medium heat.



 Step 2 

Combine the dressing ingredients with a pinch of salt in a clean lidded jar or bowl and shake or whisk to combine. Set aside.



 Step 3 

Combine the crushed garlic, yogurt and a pinch of salt in a bowl and mix well. Set aside.



 Step 4 

Grill the tomatoes over direct heat for about 5 minutes until charred and soft.



 Step 5 

To serve, spread the garlic yoghurt on a plate. Remove the grilled tomatoes from the vine and combine with the herbs in a bowl. Add two-thirds of the dressing and mix gently.



 Step 6 

Top the yoghurt with the tomato mixture and pour the remaining dressing on top.



 Step 7 

Add another drizzle of olive oil, a scattering of pomegranate seeds and some more salt, if you like.



 Step 8 

To cook indoors: Preheat a cast-iron griddle pan over a high heat for at least 5 minutes and use it to char the tomatoes. You could also cook them under the grill – just make sure they get nice and black in places.
