Fig Prosciutto Pizzettas Recipes

ROASTED FIGS AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Snip the hard stems off the figs and cut the figs in half lengthwise through the stem. With a small sharp knife, cut the prosciutto lengthwise into inch-wide strips. Wrap a strip of prosciutto around the center of each fig half, with the ends overlapping. Brush with olive oil and arrange cut-side up on a sheet pan.
• Roast the figs for 10 minutes, until the prosciutto is a little crisp and the figs are warmed through. Serve warm.

FIGS AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Arrange prosciutto in overlapping slices on a large platter. Place figs beside prosciutto, drizzle with vinegar, and garnish with fresh thyme sprigs.
• Sprinkle the Parmesan shavings over prosciutto and figs.

FIG AND PROSCIUTTO APPETIZER BITES

Steps:

• Place goat cheese on a sheet of plastic wrap. Top with another sheet of plastic wrap and use a rolling pin to flatten into a 4x8-inch rectangle.
• Remove the top sheet of plastic wrap and cover goat cheese with slices of prosciutto, slightly overlapping the edges. Cover prosciutto with a new sheet of plastic wrap and flip both sheets over so the goat cheese layer is now facing up.
• Remove top sheet of plastic wrap. Cover goat cheese evenly with figs, basil, and black pepper. Starting from the long edge, roll tightly to form a log. Wrap log in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

FIG & PROSCIUTTO PIZZETTAS

Steps:

• To make the dough, mix the flour, yeast and salt in a bowl. Measure 250ml hand-warm water into a jug, add the oil, then tip into the flour mixture. Mix together with a wooden spoon, followed by your hands, to make a wet dough - add a splash more warm water if needed. Cover with oiled cling film and leave somewhere warm-ish to rise for 1 hr or until doubled in size. Heat the butter, then soften the shallots and set aside.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the dough onto a floured surface, knead briefly to smooth, then divide into 6-8 balls. Roll out each to a thin circle, then arrange on flour-dusted baking sheets. Mix the crème fraîche, Parmesan and shallots with a little salt and lots of black pepper. Spread over the dough and bake for 10-15 mins until crisp at the edges and slightly puffed up.
• Toss the figs and mozzarella with the rocket. Sprinkle over the pizzettas with the prosciutto. Mix the oil and vinegar, drizzle over the pizzettas and serve.

FIG, RICOTTA AND PROSCIUTTO PIZZETTE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F and arrange a rack in the middle. Roll out pizza dough into a 1/4-inch-thick rectangle. Using a pastry brush, lightly oil the dough, and, using a 3-inch biscuit cutter, stamp out 22 to 24 rounds.
• Transfer rounds to a greased baking sheet. Then spread 1 teaspoon of the ricotta on top. Evenly distribute prosciutto onto each pizzette. Finish by topping each pizzette with a fig or 1/2 teaspoon of the fig jam.
• Bake until cheese is melted and underside is brown, about 12 to 15 minutes.

FIGS WITH PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Halve the figs lengthways and put them, cut side down, without oil, in a hot griddle pan (or heavy-based frying pan) for 1 minute until charred. Sprinkle with balsamic vinegar and salt and black pepper to taste, and, while still warm, wrap each half in a little piece of prosciutto.
• Serve as canapés or a starter, garnished with shaved parmesan and fresh mint or rocket leaves.

FIG AND PROSCIUTTO PIZZA

Steps:

• One hour prior to cooking, place a baking stone in the oven, and heat to 500 degrees.
• Roll out one pizza dough as thinly as possible. Place it on a pizza peel sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover the surface with 1 teaspoon oil, 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic, 1 pinch each salt and pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon chopped rosemary. Leave an uncovered, 1-inch-wide outer lip all the way around.
• Evenly dot 1/4 cup fig jam and 2 ounces Gorgonzola cheese on the pizza. Top with half the prosciutto.
• Shake the peel lightly, and slide the pizza onto the baking stone. Bake until browned, about 6 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a firm surface and cut into slices. Serve immediately, garnished with half the sliced scallion. Repeat with remaining dough.
