  2. Place the yoghurt in a bowl, grate over the garlic clove. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Mix well.

  3. Place a sieve over a separate bowl, and cover the sieve with muslin. Pour the yogurt mix into the muslin covered sieve.

  8. To serve, divide the peach onto plates with the rocket leaves. Add a generous tablespoon of labneh. Scatter over the toasted almonds and pomegranate seeds. Drizzle over the oil and molasses.
