Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°. Line a large baking tray with baking paper.

Drizzle with a little olive oil, season with a little salt and sprinkle over the toasted flaked almonds, followed by the oregano and pul biber. Drizzle all over with the honey and, finally, scatter over the mint ribbons. Take to the table to serve.
