Prosciutto Wrapped Salmon with Ratatouille


The saltiness of the prosciutto works perfectly with the milder taste of the salmon and the slight sweetness of the ratatouille. The punch of fresh herbs just rounds it out perfectly. Simple, quick and tasty.

Note: We use Fratelli Beretta prosciutto for this recipe as the only ingredients are pork and salt, it is not processed and has no added nitrates.

Hint: You can leave out the rosemary if you like, you will get a nice caramelisation on the prosciutto under the salmon.
