- Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Rub the rack with 2 tbsp of the pomegranate molasses and season well. Sear in a non-stick pan to brown on both sides. Put on a baking tray and roast for 15 minutes. Remove and rest for 10 minutes.
- Put the red pepper, cucumber, red onion and mint in a bowl with the remaining pomegranate syrup and tomato purée. Season with salt and mix well. Slice the rack into chops and spoon the salsa over. Sprinkle the crumbled feta and the extra mint leaves over each plate before serving.
