Background

These Prosciutto wrapped mozzarella wraps are excellent nibbles or appetizers at parties. You can create lots of them in just a few minutes and you can be made ahead of the event. Alternatively, they are the perfect instant snack when friends pop in for a drink. They go particularly well with Prosecco.

Ingredients

200g Parma ham (or other prosciutto )
50g rocket salad
150g mozzarella
about 250g sun dried tomatoes in oil
Balsamic syrup (see tips below)

Instructions

Drain the mozzarella and tear it into chunks.
Place a piece of the ham flat on a chopping board. Scatter some rocket leaves in the centre, then place one piece of sun dried tomato on top, followed by a mozzarella chunk. Drizzle a little syrup over it. Roll up the ham.
Repeat this process with the rest of the ham pieces.
Arrange the wraps on a serving plate, drizzle some syrup over them.

Tips

You can buy balsamic syrup but I make it by boiling half a cup of balsamic vinegar with 1 tablespoon of muscovado sugar and reducing it to a thick syrup.
