Herb and Garlic Dressing image

I found this years ago in a recipe book made by a local church auxiliary. I make it and use it as a dressing for pasta salad or tomato and cucumber Greek salad. I usually mix a day ahead and the flavors taste 100 times better!

FRAGRANT MIXED HERB AND FLATBREAD SALAD (DOMAAJ)



Fragrant Mixed Herb and Flatbread Salad (Domaaj) image

The salad works best with strips of Persian flatbread, but if you don't have time to make your own, and can't find any in the shops, then plain tortillas work just as well. The addition of golpar, with its citrusy aroma, really lifts this dish, accentuating the sweetness of the pomegranates and adding a wonderful depth of flavour, so try and track some down if you can.
