This summery recipe is delicious and refreshing. Make sure your melon is nice and ripe to get the full flavors. I like using cantaloupe but any ripe melon will do! Serve with Bokisch Garnacha Blanca or Trencadis White Blend!
Ingredients
  • ¼ ripe cantaloupe
  • 3 slices prosciutto
  • ¼ Red onion
  • Fresh mint leaves
  • Bokisch Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Instructions
  1. Cut the prosciutto into bits and fry until crispy in olive oil. Let drain and cool.
  2. Shave the cantaloupe into thin strips with a peeler, sharp knife or mandolin.
  3. Stack like ribbon on a platter.
  4. Thinly slice the red onion and arrange in between with slices with the fresh mint.
  5. Sprinkle the crispy prosciutto on top.
  6. Drizzle with delicious Bokisch olive oil from Terra Alta Vineyards
  7. Salt and Pepper to taste.
I just used a potato peeler for my melon and it worked just fine!

I love taking photos as the sun is just setting. The lighting is gorgeous and makes everything glow!
