MELON AND PARMA HAM SALAD WITH MINT DRESSING



Melon and Parma Ham Salad With Mint Dressing image

This combination works extremely well and is tasty tasty tasty! There are 2 ways I serve this, either as a main course summer salad with cantaloupe melon mixed into salad leaves with strips of parma ham running through it and the dressing poured over, or as my mum does for a starter, use whole big chunks of honeydew melon with the parma ham grilled until crisp (watch it as it burns easily) and a little salad as garnish. The dressing is a must and makes the dish and you must must must use fresh mint leaves. That's a must!

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 melon
8 slices parma ham
100 g parmesan cheese, shaved using a vegetable peeler (optional)
100 g mixed salad greens
4 tablespoons red wine vinegar or 4 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
6 tablespoons fresh mint leaves
9 tablespoons olive oil
1 pinch salt
1 pinch pepper

Steps:

  • Pulse the dressing in a blender adding the mint leaves last, leaving them only half blended into the dressing. Put in the fridge until ready to use.
  • Assemble the salad any way you like (see above) grilling the parma ham until crisp for a change or if you like it like this (it does add another dimension done like this, but I do like it raw too).
  • Pour a little of the dressing over the salad and serve with extra dressing on the side for those who want more. Some nice crusty bread wouldn't go amiss either!
