4
Toss the vegetables with the dressing and leave the Cokelek cheese on top so its crumbly texture is not lost.
5
Finish with parsley and walnuts, then serve right away with lavash.
6
If the Cokelek cheese is salty, reduce the salt in the dressing so the sharpness does not increase with the pomegranate molasses.

💡 Tip: Drizzling the pomegranate molasses at the end gives a bright flavor without darkening the Cokelek cheese.

🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the Cokelek salad cold with tandoor bread.
