Burrata, peach, and speck with pickled red onions
Such a beautiful starter. We would serve this sharing style for 2 - 4 people, sitting outside in the late evening sun. Serve with a peppery rocket salad and sourdough.
INGREDIENTS
-
1 burrata
2 peaches
50g macadamia nuts, toasted
5 or so slices of Speck
small bunch basil
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
glug red wine vinegar
1 tbsp water
1 tsp sugar
INSTRUCTIONS
First make the pickled red onions. Finely slice the red onions and place in a small bowl. Separately whisk together the vinegar, water and sugar with a pinch of salt till it has all dissolved then pour over the red onion and submerge for at least 30 minutes.Cut up the peach into slices and place on a serving platter with the speck and place the burrata on top. Carefully tear open the burrata and season generously. Drizzle over the red onion and a good glug of extra virgin olive oil.
Roughly chop the macadamia nuts and scatter over along with torn basil leaves.
