6 Nectara™ nectarines. Tip: Tangy Punch pairs perfect with cheeses and Sweet Silk pairs perfect with rocket salad
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses
120 grams rocket
125 grams x3 balls of buffalo mozzarella
For the pesto
2 cups fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup pine nuts
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
METHOD
Slice the nectarines in half, remove the stones and carefully salt and drizzle with oil. Then place on a hot BBQ. Grill until nicely charred, and when the texture has slightly softened.
Make the pesto by adding all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until it is a smooth consistency.
Make the dressing by whisking together the olive oil, pomegranate molasses and some salt. Place the rocket in a bowl and just before serving, lightly pour some dressing over the leaves.
To serve, place a bed of rocket on each plate and sit 2 grilled nectarine halves on top. Break up the mozzarella and place around the leaves. Dollop some pesto and drizzle some pomegranate molasses.
Enjoy!
