Caprese Salad with Prosciutto
Inspired by Raewyn & Geraldine's free cookbook I decided to re-create this salad as we also discovered a little french cafe that sold it when we were in Rarotonga. I got to use the fresh basil that's overtaking my wee herb garden and some tomatoes off my one & only plant (must get more!).
