Festive summer starter: Sweet pear, salty prosciutto, sharp cheese, peppery rocket.
Ingredients:
  • 10 pears, halved lengthways
  • Olive oil spray
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) extra virgin olive oil
  • 40.00 ml balsamic vinegar
  • 10 slices prosciutto, halved lengthways
  • 2 bunches rocket leaves
  • 100g brie, cut into 10 slices
  • 100g blue cheese, cut into 10 slices
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C and prepare a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
  • Core each pear half using a teaspoon or melon baller. Arrange pear halves on a baking tray, cut-side up. Lightly spray with oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 30-40 minutes until tender. Allow to cool before serving.
  • Combine the oil and vinegar in a jug, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Lay down a layer of prosciutto and top with sliced pear. Add a rocket leaf and a slice of brie on each pear half. Wrap prosciutto around the pear tightly to seal. Arrange on a platter and repeat the process with remaining ingredients. Drizzle with balsamic dressing before serving.
