Ingredients

Scale

Meats

  • 6 pieces prosciutto
  • 6 slices salami

Fillings & Spreads

  • 2 tbsp basil pesto
  • 1/2 cup roasted red peppers
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes
  • 4 ounces burrata
  • 2 handfuls fresh arugula

Finishing

  • Balsamic glaze, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Prepare the base: Lay a sheet of plastic wrap on a cutting board. Arrange the 6 pieces of prosciutto on the plastic wrap, slightly overlapping to form a rectangle. On one side of the prosciutto layer, lay the 6 slices of salami, also slightly overlapping.
  2. Add spreads and vegetables: Spread 2 tablespoons of basil pesto evenly over the salami. Next, layer 1/2 cup of roasted red peppers and 1/3 cup of sun-dried tomatoes on top of the pesto to create a flavorful base.
  3. Layer the cheese and greens: Split the 4 ounces of burrata cheese and spread it evenly along the same side as the other ingredients. Then, add 2 handfuls of fresh arugula over the burrata to add freshness and texture.
  4. Roll the sushi: Using the plastic wrap to help, start rolling the layered ingredients tightly into a log shape, with the prosciutto on the outside wrapping the fillings inside. Ensure the roll is firm and compact for clean slices.
  5. Slice and serve: Remove the plastic wrap and slice the roll crosswise into “sushi-like” pieces. Arrange on a serving platter and drizzle balsamic glaze on top to finish with a sweet and tangy flavor.

Notes

  • Use a sharp knife to slice the rolls cleanly without crushing the fillings.
  • For best results, chill the rolled log in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes before slicing to help it firm up.
  • Substitute burrata with fresh mozzarella if unavailable.
  • This recipe is perfect for an elegant appetizer or light snack without any cooking.
