Pesto + Prosciutto Crudo + Mozzarella = Guaranteed Indulgence for Dinner
If you haven’t discovered filo pastry sheets yet, we bet this recipe will make you addicted! Much crumblier than brick pastry, filo sheets allow you to achieve an incomparable crunch. Today, we offer you a recipe with Italian flavors (and colors) featuring prosciutto crudo, mozzarella, sun-dried tomatoes and a good traditional pesto! For folding, we rely on this very visual spiral for an explosion of indulgence as soon as it comes out of the oven. To serve while still hot, we pair our spiral with a green salad for a quick dinner or, alternatively, we can present it on a grazing antipasti table.
What we love about this recipe is that it can be endlessly varied! With meat, fish, vegetables, cheese, crème fraîche, tomato sauce… It’s up to you to compose the dream combination in this filo spiral and send us your best ideas so we can feast together too 😋
