Method

  • step 1

    Mix the ricotta with the pesto and season with salt and pepper. Cut each slice of prosciutto in half widthways, then spread the ricotta mix over them.

  • step 2

    Lay a few rocket leaves lengthways on each slice so they poke out at each end. Roll each one up and place on a serving plate. Sprinkle with ground pepper.

  • step 3

    Prepare ahead; assemble the rolls on the plate, cover with cling film and keep in the fridge for up to 1-2 hours until ready to serve.

These taste beautiful but as happens generally, the proscuitto sticks together so the presentation is ruined whenever guests tries to pick one up! My tip is to lay them out in a single layer and not too closely together..

A bit fiddly but tasted nice and was something a bit different to greet guests with. Didn't need all the ricotta mix as putting too much on the ham made it harder to roll.
