preparation
➊ Halve each piece of feta cheese to make four pieces. Crush the nachos into fine crumbs, for example with your hands or with a rolling pin. Mix with the chopped parsley and chopped garlic. Roll the four pieces of feta cheese in the mixture and distribute the remaining nacho mixture on the plates.
➋ Heat up a grill with a lid and smoke the wood chips. Spread the tomatoes and jalapeños on the grill and smoke for 20 minutes in the closed grill. Then heat up a plancha or a smooth grill plate to a high temperature and brush with a little vegetable oil.
➌ Place the vegetables and melon cubes on one side and the feta cheese on the other. Grill the feta pieces on each side for about 2 to 3 minutes until they are golden brown.
➍ Now season the vegetables with salt and pepper and drizzle with a little pomegranate syrup. Arrange on plates together with the feta cheese.
