Mediterranean melon salad with parmesan croutons


Hello! How are you? I am now sitting for half an hour in front of the PC and I simply don’t have any inspiration for writing an introduction for today's post. It happens to me sometimes...especially since I'm not the writer type.

I realized that I did not post very many salad recipes this summer and this although I eat quite a lot of salads. Why? No idea. But the summer is not over yet, so I am now trying to change that. So today I have a salad recipe.


You need (for 4 servings):


For the croutons:
For the dressing:
For the salad:
2 slices of toast
½ garlic clove
½ cantaloupe melon
30 g parmesan
50 ml olive oil
slices prosciutto
20 ml olive oil
20 ml balsamic vinegar
250 g mozzarella
freshly grated lemon zest
juice from ½ lemon
2 handful rocket salad
salt
salt
10 mint leaves

pepper
10 basil leaves



ingredients


Instructions:

For the croutons Preheat oven to 180°C.

Cut the bread crust and cut the bread in dices.

Give bread, olive oil, grated Parmesan and lemon zest in a bowl. Mix everything and season with salt.



Spread the bread on a tin lined with parchment paper and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Turn over after half the time. Remove from the oven and allow to cool (if you do not used them immediately, store the croutons in a sealed container).



For the dressing, finely chop the garlic.
Add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice and garlic in a jam jar. Season with salt and pepper.

Close the jar and mix well.


dressing


Remove the seeds and cut melon into smaller pieces.
Cut prosciutto and mozzarella. Place on a plate together with the melon.



Distribute the rocket salad, mint and basil and the Parmesan croutons on the plate. Marinate with the dressing and serve.
