An elegant yet simple composed plate combining creamy burrata, sweet grilled peaches, and salty prosciutto, perfect for summer gatherings or a light lunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ball (about 8 oz / 225 g) fresh burrata cheese
  • 2 medium ripe peaches, halved and pitted
  • 4 oz (115 g) thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 12 tablespoons balsamic glaze
  • A small handful fresh basil leaves, torn
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Flaky sea salt, for finishing

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F / 200°C).
  2. Rinse and pat dry the peaches. Halve and pit them, then brush cut sides lightly with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  3. Place peaches cut side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes until char marks appear and peaches soften slightly but hold their shape.
  4. Flip peaches and grill skin side for another 2 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
  5. Place the burrata ball in the center of your serving plate and gently tear it open to expose the creamy inside.
  6. Arrange thin slices of prosciutto around the burrata, folding or draping for texture and volume.
  7. Nestle the grilled peach halves around the cheese and prosciutto, skin side down.
  8. Drizzle remaining olive oil and balsamic glaze evenly over the plate.
  9. Scatter torn fresh basil leaves on top and finish with flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  10. Let the plate sit for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving.

Notes

If peaches aren’t in season, substitute with nectarines or grilled figs. For dairy-free, use almond-based cheese. Prosciutto can be swapped with smoked turkey or serrano ham. Handle burrata gently and let it warm slightly at room temperature before assembling. Avoid rushing the grilling to get perfect char marks.
