Ingredients

• 1 bunch fresh purslane (pirpirim)
• 2 ripe tomatoes
• 2 green pointed peppers
• 1 medium onion
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Method

1. Wash the purslane thoroughly and soak in vinegary water for 10 minutes, discarding thick stems.
2. Roughly tear the cleaned purslane by hand and place in a mixing bowl.
3. Dice the tomatoes and green peppers into small cubes.
4. Slice the onion thinly and rub gently with salt.
5. Add all vegetables over the purslane and mix gently.
6. In a separate bowl, whisk olive oil, pomegranate molasses, salt, and red pepper flakes to make the dressing.
7. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and serve fresh immediately.

Tearing purslane by hand instead of cutting with a knife prevents bruising and water loss.
