Pomegranate molasses marinade

This is a versatile marinade, using pomegranate molasses. If you can only get pomegranate juice, boil it to reduce it to a syrup. This marinade makes sublime kebobs.

• 1/3 cup pomegranate molasses
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 small red onion, sliced
• 1 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon cardamom
• 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

METHOD

Combine all ingredients in saucepan. Over medium heat bring to a simmer, whisking. Do not let boil. Simmer for 5 minutes, remove from heat and let cool.

When cool use as marinade for meats. The pomegranate will give bite to the marinade.
