The Easiest Sexiest Salad in the World
- 4 figs
- 4 slices Parma ham or prosciutto
- 4 slices buffalo mozzarella
- A handful green or purple basil, leaves picked
- 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon good honey
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- For the salad:
- One thing I do is to criss-cross the figs but not quite to the bottom 1 fig per person is always a good start.
- Then, using your thumbs and forefingers, squeeze the base of the fig to expose the inside.
- At this point youll think, Oooh, that looks nice, I think Im quite clever... or at least I do.
- More importantly, it allows your dressing to get right into the middle of the fig.
- All these little things really help to make a salad special.
- Simply place the figs in a dish, weave around 1 slice of Parma ham or prosciutto per fig, throw in some slices of buffalo mozzarella, rip over some green or purple basil and drizzle everything with the honey and lemon juice dressing.
- As far as salads go, its pretty damn sexy.
- For the honey and lemon juice dressing:
- Mix everything together in a bowl and season to taste.
