Remove, uncover and set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, place the walnuts and the pine nuts on a baking tray and bake for 5–10 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Roughly chop nuts and set aside.
- Combine yoghurt, tahini, garlic, lemon zest and 2–3 tablespoons of lemon juice in a bowl. Season the mixture with cracked black pepper. Combine the shallots, mint, coriander, chilli, sumac, walnuts and the pine nuts in a separate bowl; mix well.
- Transfer the cooled salmon fillet to serving platter. Spread the yoghurt mixture completely over the salmon. Top with the herb and nut mixture to cover yoghurt. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Scatter the cooled salmon evenly with pomegranate seeds, to serve.
