Peach and burrata salad

This unexpected marriage of peach, burrata and prosciutto has been one of my favourite summer salads on repeat.

I was introduced to this delicious combination for the first time at La Vecchia, and I was committed to re-create at home it for my own indulgence, and to share it with friends and family.

It’s been a hit every time.

And why wouldn’t it be? It’s a colourful presentation of sweet peaches, creamy burrata, salty prosciutto, crunchy pistachios and a drizzle of honey.

The best part is that you can actually make this all year round because it calls for canned peaches.

This is a great addition to a weeknight dinner on the side of chicken skewers, pasta or baked salmon.

It’s a fun dinner party appetizer, and it’s even easy to pack in bento boxes for a summer picnic.

I hope you enjoy! 🍑

Ingredients

2 cups of arugula or mixed greens with arugula
1 can (540mL) of peach slices
1 container (250g) of burrata cheese
100g of sliced prosciutto
2 tablespoons of roasted and unshelled pistachios
Drizzle of honey
Cracked black pepper to taste

Directions

Rinse and drain the canned peach slices and the burrata, and set them aside.
Place the arugula on a serving plate. Add the peaches and chunks of burrata (you can use a knife or your hands. Remember that the inside of the burrata will be a bit runny!). Sprinkle the pistachios on top, add a drizzle of honey and crack some black pepper to taste.
Serve and enjoy immediately.

Notes: Refrigerate remaining peach slices and consume within 1-2 days.
