No reviews

Roasted Apricot Salad with Rosemary, Burrata, and Parma Ham is an elegant Mediterranean-inspired dish that balances sweet roasted apricots, creamy burrata, and savory cured ham. Perfect as a summer starter or light main course.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

8 ripe but firm apricots

2 burratas (125 g each)

6 slices Parma ham (minimum 18 months aged)

1 sprig fresh rosemary

1 tsp acacia honey

2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Fleur de sel (or sea salt)

Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Wash and dry the apricots, cut them in half, and remove the pits.
  2. Place apricot halves cut side up in a baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil, add honey, and sprinkle with rosemary leaves.
  3. Roast for 18 minutes until slightly caramelized, tender but still holding their shape.
  4. Remove burrata from the fridge 30 minutes before serving. Tear into large irregular pieces and arrange on a serving platter.
  5. Add slices of Parma ham, loosely folded for volume, alternating with the burrata pieces.
  6. Place warm roasted apricots on the platter, spooning over any cooking juices.
  7. Garnish with fresh rosemary, drizzle with olive oil, and season with fleur de sel and black pepper. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Swap Parma ham with speck, prosciutto, or coppa.
  • Add arugula or mixed greens for freshness.
  • Use lavender or wildflower honey for a different aroma.
  • Top with toasted almonds or walnuts for crunch.
  • Replace burrata with buffalo mozzarella for a lighter option.
