DescriptionIf you look at all the elements you can understand why it is such a brilliant combo: sweet, cold Clementines from the fridge, sliced at the last minute so they are shiny and juicy; salty, smoky speck; creamy mozzarella (at the restaurant we are lucky enough to use burrata mozzarella, which is killer stuff, the best!); salty, rich Parmesan; fragrant mint; peppery, crunchy rocket; bitter treviso (or radicchio), which also gives a bit of colour; and balsamic vinegar. As a salad goes, it really has got everything - sweetness, bitterness, crunch and softness. |

How Tos & Summary
Cooking Steps
Get four individual serving plates out and tear a ball of mozzarella into rough chunks on to each plate. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and grate over the lemon zest. Arrange the Clementine slices over the mozzarella - one Clementine per plate.
In a bowl, dress the rocket, treviso or radicchio and mint leaves in a little dressing, reserving a few small picked mint leaves for serving.
On a chopping board, lay out a slice of speck and use this to pick up and wrap about a quarter of the dressed leaves.
Place the little package on one of the plates, on top of the Clementine slices. Repeat this for the other plates. Serve with a shaving of Parmesan, a sprinkling of mint leaves and a drizzle ot aged balsamic vinegar. Lat immediately! Absolutely delicious.
