Directions:
To assemble the salad, place the burrata rounds on the platter, either just one in the center or around the platter depending how many rounds you have.

Using your hands, wrap each wedge on the melon in the center with a strip of the prosciutto.

Alternate layering the tomato slices and cantaloupe slices around the burrata.

Tuck in the figs or peach slices in the remaining gaps.

Sprinkle fresh basil over the top.

Add a good glug of extra virgin olive oil and a splattering of balsamic vinegar.

Season with a pinch of sea salt and cracked black pepper.
