In a medium-size pot, add rinsed lentils and stir for a minute.
Add 2 to 3 cups of water, cover the pot and leave it over low heat for about 15 minutes until half-cooked. Add eggplant cubes, salt, black pepper, and cumin.
Stir and leave for another 10 to 15 minutes until lentils and eggplants are tender and totally cooked.
Meanwhile, bring olive oil to medium heat in a different frying pan.
Add garlic, coriander, and flour and keep frequent stirring until garlic become golden brown.
Add the garlic mix to the lentil and eggplant pot, and then the pomegranate juice (or molasses). Stir the pot for 3 to 5 minutes so all ingredients are cooked together. Pour the mixture in middle-sized deep plates.
Add seasoning of olive oil, red chili pepper, and garnish with parsley and grains of pomegranate.
Serve hot or cold with pita or any bread as per your preference.
