Prosciutto and Rockmelon (Cantaloupe) With Balsamic Glaze image

From Australian BH&G Diabetic Living - a lovely refreshing summer dish. The recipe called for Rockmelon but food.com does not recognise and I think cantaloupe is the equivalent - rockmelon is an orange fleshed melon. There is no cooking time (unless you are making the glaze) but if not serving immediately keep chilled in the refrigerator.

Categories     Melons

Time 21m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

800 g cantaloupe (peeled and deseeded)
8 slices prosciutto (80grams thin)
1 tablespoon balsamic glaze (see note at end of recipe)
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
ground black pepper (fresh)

Steps:

  • Using a slicer, mandolin or vegetable peeler, slice the peeled rockmelon/cantaloupe into long ribbons and cut each slice of prosciutto into 3 long strips.
  • Roll up the strips of rockmelon and arrange on plates and then roll up the strips of prociutto and place on the rockmelon.
  • Drizzle the balsamic glaze and oil on the plates around the melon and sprinkle with pepper to serve.
  • BALSAMIC GLAZE (reduced balsamic vinegar), if you cannot buy you can make it by putting 80ml (1/3 cup) balsamic vinegar in a small non-stick frypan and bring to a simmere over high heat and then reduce heat to medium-high and simmer for 3-5 minutes or until vinegar reduces and thickens and this will make 1 tablespoon of glaze and if it is too thick, jusst add a little more vinegar.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always a hit with my guests. The melon is so refreshing and the prosciutto is perfectly salty. The balsamic glaze is the perfect finishing touch.

This dish is so refreshing and perfect for a summer party. The melon is so light and sweet, and the prosciutto adds a nice salty flavor. The balsamic glaze is the perfect finishing touch.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover melon. I had some cantaloupe that was about to go bad, so I decided to try this recipe. It turned out great! The melon was still sweet and juicy, and the prosciutto added a nice salty flavor. The balsamic g

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The melon wasn't very flavorful and the prosciutto was a bit dry. The balsamic glaze helped a little, but overall I was disappointed.

This dish was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The melon was very ripe and juicy, and the prosciutto was good quality. The balsamic glaze was a nice touch.

I was skeptical about this recipe at first, but I'm so glad I tried it! The melon and prosciutto go together surprisingly well, and the balsamic glaze is the perfect finishing touch. I'll definitely be making this again.
