Chef tips
To deseed a pomegranate easily and mess-free, halve it and whack the skin firmly with a wooden spoon over a deep bowl. Alternatively, peel the seeds in a bowl of water to prevent splashes. For a delicious upgrade, add toasted walnuts or salty feta cheese to complement the pomegranate's sweetness. Kids will love helping garnish the dish and scattering those red "diamonds" over the greens.
