Mixed Leaf Salad with Mozzarella, Mint, Peach and Prosciutto
Jamie Oliver's simple yet delicious recipe for a Mixed Leaf Salad with Mozzarella, Peach and Prosciutto is full of irresistible Italian flavours, with the fresh mint and juicy peach giving it a real taste of summer.
Introduction
Try to get hold of buffalo mozzarella. I like to crumble a little bit of dried chilli over my mozzarella, but I’m a chilli freak and you may not be, so you don’t have to! And use any mixed leaves you fancy.
Ingredients
| 1 | ripe peach |
| 1 ball | mozzarella, preferably buffalo mozzarella |
| A couple of slices | prosciutto |
| Mixed leaves of your choice | |
| Dried chilli flakes (optional) | |
| For the dressing: | |
| 2 tbsp | lemon juice |
| 5 tbsp | olive oil |
| Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste |
Method
To make the dressing:
Mix the ingredients together until combined and set aside.
To assemble the salad:
Pinch the skin of the peach and peel from the bottom to the top then quarter them. Rip the mozzarella into small pieces and place on a plate with the peaches. Lightly season. Lay a couple of slices of prosciutto over the top. Dress your mixed salad leaves and torn-up mint with a little of the olive oil and lemon juice dressing. Throw the leaves on top of the plate.
