4 TABLESPOONS Oil
4 large slices of Parma ham (approx. 18 g each)
100 g Lamb's lettuce
1 shallot or 1 small onion
2 TABLESPOONS White wine vinegar
1 TEASPOON medium hot mustard
7-10 Tbsp Salt

7-10 Tbsp Sugar
8 (approx. 60 g) Mini-Mozzarella balls

4 Artichoke hearts (glass)
3 Stem(s) Basil

Directions

1
Preheat oven (electric cooker: 225 °C/circulating air: 200 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Coat four troughs of a muffin tray with oil. Place 1 slice of ham in each tray so that the bottom and edge of the trays are covered.
2
Place suitable ovenproof glasses or cups inside so that the ham is pressed to the edge. Bake in a hot oven for about 20 minutes.
3
Meanwhile, for the salad, select the lamb's lettuce, wash and drain. Peel and finely dice the shallot. Heat 4 tablespoons of oil in a small pot. Sauté the shallot for about 1 minute. Deglaze with vinegar and remove from the heat.
4
Stir in the mustard. Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.
5
Quarter mozzarella balls. Cut peppers into short strips, artichokes into slices. Wash basil, shake dry, pluck the leaves from the stalks and cut into coarse strips. Mix everything, season with pepper.
6
Arrange the salad on plates and drizzle the dressing over it. Remove ham from the oven. Remove glasses or cups. Carefully remove the ham baskets from the hollows. Place on the salad. Fill with the antipastimix.
7
Roasted ciabatta goes with it.
