Grilled nectarine & burrata salad

Delight in the perfect blend of grilled nectarines and creamy burrata in this refreshing salad. A harmonious mix of sweet and savory flavors awaits!

Ingredients:

• 15g unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp caster sugar
• 50g whole pecans
• 3 ripe nectarines, stoned and cut into eighths lengthways
• 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for brushing
• 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1 tsp honey
• 2 x 100g balls of burrata or vegetarian alternative
• 70g rocket
• bunch of basil leaves, roughly torn
• pinch of chilli flakes

Instructions:

1. Melt the butter and sugar in a small frying pan over medium heat. Add the pecans and stir to coat them in the buttery sugar. Cook for approximately 5 minutes, stirring until the pecans become crispy and caramelized. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let it cool. Once cooled, roughly chop the pecans and keep them aside.
2. Heat a griddle pan over high heat and coat the nectarine slices generously with olive oil. Grill for 1-2 minutes on each side until they are charred and caramelized. Transfer to a serving plate and set aside.
3. Combine 4 tablespoons of olive oil, vinegar, and honey in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to create a dressing.
4. Arrange the burrata balls among the nectarines on a serving platter. Cut open the burrata, then place the rocket and basil around them. Drizzle the dressing over the salad, sprinkle with the pecans, and add a pinch of chili flakes before serving.
