Method

1. 1

   Roast the red and green peppers, peel their skins, and chop them finely.

2. 2

   Clean the fresh mint, parsley, and green onions, then chop them as finely as possible.

3. 3

   Mix the chopped roasted peppers and greens in a deep bowl.

4. 4

   Add the crushed walnut kernels into the mixture.

5. 5

   Prepare the dressing in a separate bowl by whisking olive oil, pomegranate molasses, and salt.

6. 6

   Drizzle the dressing over the salad, toss gently, and transfer to a serving plate.

Note. If you let the peppers rest in a bag for 5 minutes after roasting, their skins will peel off much easier.
