Prosciutto Filled with Happiness

These elegant prosciutto and gorgonzola rolls offer a sophisticated balance of salty, creamy, and sweet flavours. The richness of the Italian blue cheese is perfectly offset by peppery rocket and the subtle crunch of toasted pine nuts, while a few currants provide a gentle hint of natural sweetness. This dish is an excellent choice for those seeking a lighter, protein-rich snack that feels indulgent without being heavy.

As a diabetes-friendly appetiser, these rolls are naturally low in carbohydrates and require no cooking beyond a quick toast of the nuts. They are ideal for effortless entertaining or as a simple savoury treat to enjoy with a glass of sparkling water. For the best result, use high-quality, thinly sliced prosciutto crudo and serve at room temperature to allow the gorgonzola to soften and release its full aroma.

Ingredients for Prosciutto Filled with Happiness

  • 40g pine nuts

  • About 20 thin slices of good-quality prosciutto

  • 1 small bunch rocket

  • 110g gorgonzola

  • 35g currants

How to make Prosciutto Filled with Happiness

Spread the pine nuts on a baking sheet and bake at 177°C until they turn golden brown. (I do mine in the toaster oven.) You'll want to keep a close eye on these because they go from golden brown to burned very quickly, as I've learned on three or four occasions. Transfer them to a small bowl and let them cool.

Cut each slice of prosciutto in half, crosswise. Don't worry if they're not perfect. Top each half-slice with a small piece of rocket, a dab of gorgonzola, a few pine nuts, and few currants. Then roll them into little mini horns.

Arrange on a platter and serve.
