200g sweet melon

1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 lemon
freshly ground black pepper

4 small lettuce leaves, for garnish

Method

Finely dice the celery and place in a medium mixing bowl.
Finely dice the sweet melon and add to the celery.
Fold in the olive oil, the juice of half the lemon and a generous amount of ground black pepper to the sweet melon & celery mixture to coat well.
Refrigerate until serving.

Just before serving, place a lettuce leaf on the side of each of 4 side plates and fold equal amounts of the Parma ham on top.
Dress the Parma ham and lettuce with the juice of the remaining half of the lemon and a twist of freshly ground black pepper.
Pile the sweet melon & celery salsa on top of the Parma ham and serve.

Serving Suggestion
