The plated dish is visually rustic yet elegant. The golden-hued pumpkin flatbreads are arranged in a fan-like manner, accompanied by a dollop of creamy labneh that shines snow white. Scattered rosemary sprigs, ruby pomegranate seeds, and chopped pistachio bring bursts of vibrant colors to the plate.
