Burrata, Parmigiano & Crispy Prosciutto Crostini

Burrata, Parmigiano & Crispy Prosciutto Crostini
Prep 10 min Cook 15 min Serves 10 Source

Ingredients

  • 1 ball burrata cheese ((285g/10oz) serves 10 crostini)
  • Parmigiano reggiano (for grating)
  • Slices of Prosciutto (half a slice per crostino)
  • Black pepper
  • Ciabatta bread
  • Olive oil

Steps

  1. 1

    Cut the ciabatta into slices and drizzle each side of the bread with olive oil. Heat a griddle pan on a high heat and char-grill or toast the bread on each side then set aside.

  2. 2

    Add a light drizzle of olive oil to a pan on a medium heat. Add the slices of prosciutto and fry until crispy and golden, flip over and fry the other side.

  3. 3

    Transfer the prosciutto to a plate lined with kitchen paper. The prosciutto will get crispier as it cools.

  4. 4

    To assemble the crostini, dollop a little burrata cheese on a slice of ciabatta bread then add a grating of Parmigiano Reggiano on top (we like to use a box grater with the biggest holes for coarsely grated cheese).

  5. 5

    Add a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper then top with a piece of crispy prosciutto (half a slice should be enough). Repeat with the remaining crostini and serve.
