The final salad in my 12 Days of Summer Salads with a true Christmas flair to it. Very traditional and not reinventing the wheel, except with gorgeous presentation. Happy Christmas to all!
ROCKET ROCKMELON PROSCIUTTO WREATH
Serves 8-10 as a starter or side
2 cups rocket leaves
250g rockmelon, sliced into thin pieces
200g bocconcini, drained
100g prosciutto, finely sliced
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp maple syrup
Arrange rocket around your serving platter in a circle to create the wreath base. Follow with rockmelon pieces, tear pieces of the bocconcini and place between. Then tear pieces of the prosciutto, curl slightly as a ribbon or rose shape and place between the rockmelon and bocconcini. Combine balsamic and maple syrup in a bowl, then drizzle around the platter. Serve immediately.
