Prosciutto-Wrapped Grilled Plums with Gorgonzola and Rosemary
Grilled plum with a bit of crumbly Gorgonzola slightly melted on the top, wrapped up in buttery prosciutto and fastened together with a sprig of rosemary. An elegant, easy starter.
Ingredients
- 2 purple or black plums, pitted and sliced into eighths
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing plums
- 8 teaspoons Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled or sliced
- 8 slices prosciutto
- 16 small sprigs fresh rosemary
Directions
Serves 8
Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill over high heat. Lightly brush the plum slices with the oil and place on the hot grill, being careful to keep them from falling through the grate. Turn once to get grill marks on each cut side of the fruit. Remove and cool slightly. Place 1/2 teaspoon Gorgonzola on each slice of plum. Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise. Wrap the prosciutto around each plum slice and skewer with a sprig of rosemary to secure.

Tempra
A classic from the shores of Guinea Bissau to the Casamance river, tempra is somewhat reminiscent of a Peruvian ceviche, the major difference being that here we grill the shrimp or oysters before marinating them in the lemon mixture.
