Prosciutto, Mozzarella and Zucchini-Topped Focaccia
This dish has it all – it’s gorgeous, fresh, savoury and satisfying and like a classic ensemble has a flavour sum that is greater than the individual parts.
Ribbons of crisp green zucchini, dance with savoury, salty prosciutto and dollops of creamy, fresh mozzarella. And like the lightly toasted, hand-crafted Focaccia it’s nestled on, this recipe is inspired by the culture and flavours of Italy – and topped with the classic Italian finishes of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, zippy red pepper flakes and pinches of salt and pepper.
