Ingredients
- 1 Hokkaido pumpkin
- 1 organic lime
- 3 EL pine nuts
- 1 Bund basil
- 4 Mozzarella di Burrata
- 8 EL quality olive oil
- Maldon salt
Steps
- Preparation:
- Split the pumpkin in half, carefully scrape out all the seeds and fibres and cut into thin slices using a sharp knife, slicer or mandoline.
- Heat a grill pan, then grill the pumpkin slices over very high heat on both sides until they are still crisp, but have a striped pattern to them.
- Divide onto the plates in a fan shape.
- Cut the lime into thin slices, and with the peel still on, then into small cubes.
- Spread the pine nuts over the pumpkin, place the basil leaves on top, spread over the mozzarella in torn pieces and drizzle with olive oil. Salt and serve immediately.
