Recipe:
Ingedients:
Youfka Dough
Dried Tomatos
Walnuts
Goat Cheese
Olive Oil
Pomegranate Seeds
Pomegranate Sour
Seasonal Fresh Vegetables
Start by cutting a square peice of dough, set aside for now. Chop/Crush the walnuts, and slice the dried tomatoes to your desired size. Mix with the goat cheese in a large bowl, and scoop into the center of the dough. Next, coat all with olive oil, and carefully fold the dough to create a pocket for the cheese. Coat in more olive oil once folded. Next, put the Mesclun on a pan with olive oil, and fry lightly, only enough to seal the outsides. Put the mesclun in the oven at 180 degrees celcius, only breifly, to melt the goat cheese inside. Return to pan again and lightly fry, only to crisp the outsides of the mesclun.
Next prepare whatever fresh season greens you have as a salad. Top with pomegranates, and serve next to the meslcun. Drizzle pomegranate sour over everything.
