A quick and elegant platter combining fresh peas, pea shoots, silky prosciutto, and creamy burrata, perfect for impressing guests with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh peas (150 grams), shelled and blanched
  • 1 cup pea shoots or tendrils (about 30 grams), for garnish
  • 6 to 8 thin slices prosciutto (about 100 grams)
  • 8 ounces burrata cheese (225 grams), fresh and at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • Zest of half a lemon
  • Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
  • Flaky sea salt, for finishing
  • Optional: crusty bread or crostini, for serving

Instructions

  1. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 cup fresh peas and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until bright green and just tender.
  2. Immediately transfer peas to a bowl of ice water to stop cooking and preserve color. Drain well and set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil with the zest of half a lemon. Stir to infuse the oil with citrus brightness.
  4. Use a large serving board or plate. Spread the blanched peas evenly in one section, leaving space for other elements.
  5. Scatter the pea shoots or tendrils around or atop the peas for fresh crunch and visual appeal.
  6. Drape 6 to 8 thin slices of prosciutto loosely over the platter, folding or rolling slices for a casual, elegant look.
  7. Gently set the burrata in the center or a prominent spot on the board. Tear it open slightly to reveal the creamy interior.
  8. Spoon the lemon-olive oil drizzle over the burrata and peas. Sprinkle freshly cracked black pepper and flaky sea salt over everything.
  9. Optionally, add slices of crusty bread or crostini on the side to make it a heartier snack or appetizer.

Notes

Do not overcook peas; blanch for 1-2 minutes to keep them tender with a slight bite and vibrant color. Let prosciutto come to room temperature before serving for best texture and flavor. Assemble platter just before serving to keep ingredients fresh. Optional additions include crusty bread, toasted nuts, or a drizzle of aged balsamic vinegar for extra flavor.
