  • Olive oil.
  • Fresh lemon juice.

Ingredients for prosciutto melon salad.

How to make Prosciutto Melon salad

  1. Prepare the ingredients: Halve the melon then scoop out the seeds. Using a melon baller, scoop balls of melon out and place in a bowl. Alternatively, chop the melon into cubes.
  2. Make the dressing: Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
  3. Make the salad: Place a bed of arugula/rocket into a serving bowl then add the melon balls and mozzarella. Add the prosciutto. Pour over the dressing and serve.

Can I make this ahead?

The melon can be balled and place in an airtight container the day before serving. The salad can be assembled (undressed) up to 2 hours in advance and kept covered in the fridge. Dress before serving.
