Notes
- The tin I have used is 20cm x 20cm (8" x 8") - a little bigger or smaller would be ok too.
- If you haven't got a baking tin this size, keep in mind that because this slice is no bake you don't have to limit yourself to a baking tin. Maybe you might have something else the right size such as a plastic container like tupperware etc.
- If you are using a fresh pomegranate to make the pomegranate juice (I did) then this post will show you an easy way to get the seeds out. Then I just crushed the seeds through a fine sieve to get the juice.
