Ingredients:

• fresh peaches (2 large, ripe)
• prosciutto (80g)
• baby arugula (100g)

• toasted walnuts (40g)
• balsamic glaze
• extra virgin olive oil
• salt
• black pepper

Kitchen Tools:

To start, slice the peaches into thin wedges, and tear the prosciutto into bite-sized pieces. In a salad bowl, combine the fresh baby arugula with the peaches and prosciutto. Crumble the goat cheese over the top and add the toasted walnuts for a delightful crunch.

In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic glaze, extra virgin olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create a simple vinaigrette. Drizzle the dressing over the salad mixture and gently toss to combine, ensuring the ingredients are evenly coated.

Heat a frying pan over medium heat and quickly fry the prosciutto until crispy. Use the crispy prosciutto as a garnish for a textural element that will elevate the dish.

Transfer the Peach and Prosciutto Salad to a serving plate, and drizzle a little more balsamic glaze on top for a finishing touch. This salad is best enjoyed immediately to savor the contrast of flavors and textures at their peak.
