Serrano ham is the air-cured ham common in Spanish tapas. Many supermarkets carry it in the deli section; you can also substitute prosciutto. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar |
1 teaspoon canola oil |
1 teaspoon molasses |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 garlic clove, minced |
6 cups cubed peeled cantaloupe (about 1 melon) |
3 ounces serrano ham, trimmed and cut into 1/4-inch pieces |
8 cups loosely packed trimmed arugula |
1/4 cup (1 ounce) shaved manchego cheese |
Directions:
1. Combine first 7 ingredients in a large bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Add cantaloupe and ham; toss gently to coat. 2. Arrange arugula in an even layer on a serving platter. Top with cantaloupe mixture; sprinkle evenly with cheese. Serve immediately. |
