Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
1 tbsp pomegranate molasses
1 tsp lemon juice
¼ cup fresh mint leaves, roughly torn

For serving

¼ cup pomegranate arils
1–2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the red onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
2
Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring constantly, until the garlic is fragrant and just beginning to turn golden at the edges, about 1 minute. Watch closely so the garlic does not burn.
