Recipe View Just before serving, gently stir the mixture. Spoon the spiced pears and pomegranate into individual serving dishes or arrange on a platter. Garnish with toasted almonds and fresh mint sprigs. (5 minutes)

For a richer flavor, try using dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
To easily remove pomegranate seeds, cut the pomegranate in half horizontally. Hold one half over a bowl, cut-side down, and firmly tap the back with a wooden spoon to release the seeds.
To toast the almonds, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden and fragrant. Alternatively, toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant.
