Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Begin by slicing the fresh mozzarella into ¼ inch thick rounds. If using a ball of mozzarella, you can tear it into pieces instead for a rustic look.

  2. 2

    Arrange the Prosciutto

    Lay the prosciutto slices out on a clean cutting board or plate. You may choose to fold the slices in half for a more elegant presentation.

  3. 3

    Wash the Arugula

    Rinse the arugula leaves thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Dry them gently using a salad spinner or pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Layer the Ingredients

    On a serving platter, start by placing a layer of fresh mozzarella rounds. Top each piece with a slice of prosciutto, allowing some of it to hang over the edges for a beautiful presentation.

  2. 5

    Add Arugula

    Scatter the arugula leaves over the mozzarella and prosciutto layers. Make sure to cover the entire platter for an appealing look.

  3. 6

    Drizzle and Season

    If desired, drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil and balsamic glaze over the assembled dish. Sprinkle salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste.
