Buffalo mozzarella takes this dish to a whole new level. You can, however, substitute cow’s milk bocconcini. Try to get your hands on micro-herbs, which add a touch of finesse to the herb salad.

Ingredients

Dijon mustard dressing

Method

Main

1.Preheat oven to 250C. Wrap each buffalo mozzarella with a prosciutto slice, secure with a toothpick and place on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with oil and roast until mozzarella just begins to melt (4-5 minutes).
2.Meanwhile, heat a char-grill over medium-high heat, grill ciabatta slices until golden (3-4 minutes each side).
3. For Dijon mustard dressing, whisk mustard and lemon juice in a bowl to combine, then whisk in oil and sugar, season to taste and set aside.
4.Place a grilled ciabatta slice on each plate, top with a baked mozzarella, season with freshly ground black pepper. Combine herbs in a separate bowl. Serve mozzarella warm with herbs to the side and dressing drizzled over.

Drink Suggestion: Dry, sparkling Prosecco. Drink suggestion by Max Allen
