Method

  1. Prepare the Salad: In a large bowl, combine the drained chickpeas, cherry tomatoes, red onion, Kalamata olives, and diced bell peppers.

  2. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, ground cumin, ground sumac, dried mint, salt, and freshly ground black pepper.

  3. Dress the Salad: Pour the dressing over the chickpea mixture and toss gently until all the ingredients are evenly coated.

  4. Add the Pomegranate: Fold in the pomegranate seeds just before serving.

  5. Serve: Enjoy immediately, or chill for 20–30 minutes before serving to allow the flavours to develop. Serve as a light meal or alongside grilled chicken, fish, or other Mediterranean-inspired dishes.
