Peach, Prosciutto and Parmesan

It’s peach season and I wanted to make a dish that is reminiscent of Croatia.  As many of you know I love buying food products as souvenirs, and this Dalmatinski Pršut is the gift that keeps on giving.

My new creation is a take on a TikTok trend.  Remember the parmesan-crusted roasted potatoes?  Well, instead of the potatoes I added cauliflower and prosciutto.  I  grated parmesan cheese and spread it evenly on a baking sheet and then added cauliflower slices.  This allows the cheese to get crispy!

Step 1: Grate the parmesan cheese and add fresh slices of basil.  Spread the cheese evenly on the baking sheet.

Step 2 Take the cauliflower slices and place them on the cheese.  Brush each cauliflower steak with olive oil.

Step3:: Bake for 20 minutes at 400 F then remove from oven and add prosciutto around the bread.  Placing it back in the oven for 10 minutes until it gets crispy.

Step 4: Layer the ingredients.  Take out the cauliflower and add prosciutto, peaches and fresh basil leaves

Ingredients
1 head of cauliflower cut into 1-inch thick slices

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon fresh basil

5 prosciutto slices

1 peach sliced

warm honey (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 F

On a baking sheet mix the parmesan cheese and basil.  Spread evenly on the baking sheet.  Put cauliflower on top of the grated cheese, and brush a little bit of olive oil on each cauliflower.

Bake for 20 minutes, then remove from oven and add slices of prosciutto around the cauliflower steaks. Place back in the oven and back for 10 minutes longer

Using the spatula remove the cheesy cauliflower from the baking sheet and add to a plate, arrange the prosciutto on top and then add peach slices with basil, and drizzle warm honey if using.
