- Apple Mango 1/2
- Greek Yogurt 4 tbsp
- Pistachios 10
- Scallions 4 stalks
- Wild Arugula to taste

Recipe 🍳
- For tying the pouches, select the thin leafy parts of the scallions, blanch them in boiling water for 10 seconds, then immediately shock them in cold water and drain.
- Peel and pit the apple mango, then dice it finely.
- Lightly crush the pistachios with the back of a knife to retain a chunky texture.
- In a bowl, combine the diced apple mango, Greek yogurt, and crushed pistachios, and mix well to create the filling.
- Lay the prosciutto slices flat on a cutting board, forming a square shape, and place the prepared filling in the center.
- Gather the four corners of the prosciutto towards the center to form a natural pouch shape, then lightly tie it with a blanched scallion stalk.
- Trim the excess length of the scallion stalk above the knot with scissors for a neat finish.
- Arrange wild arugula on a plate, and place the prosciutto pouches on top, ensuring they are stable.
- Garnish by sprinkling balsamic caviar evenly over the pouches and around the plate.
- Blanch scallion stalks in boiling water for 10 seconds, then shock in cold water and drain.
- Mix finely diced apple mango, Greek yogurt, and crushed pistachios to make the filling.
- Place the filling in the center of spread-out prosciutto slices and gather them into a pouch shape.
- Tie the neck with a blanched scallion to form a pouch shape, then trim the excess stalk.
- Arrange on a plate with arugula and drizzle with balsamic caviar to finish.
Cooking tips 💡
- Scallions are stiff and can break if tied raw, so it's essential to blanch them briefly in boiling water to make them soft before using.
- Instead of apple mango, ripe melon or Korean melon can also be used for a great sweet and savory combination with prosciutto.
