Ingredients

  • 200 g (7 oz) ball of burrata
  • A couple handfuls of rocket / arugula
  • A handful of fresh basil leaves

For the blueberry sauce

  • 200 g (7 oz) blueberries
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • A few grinds of black pepper

Instructions 

  • First, prepare the blueberry sauce. Over a medium heat, mix all of the ingredients in a saucepan for about 15 minutes. It will all melt together and thicken as the blueberries start to break up. When you're satisfied with the consistency, remove from the heat and let it stand for about 20 minutes so it's not piping hot when you serve it.
  • Assemble the salad. First, place the rocket and basil leaves on the plate topped with the whole ball of burrata. Drizzle sauce over it.
  • Add some extra black pepper if you like.
  • Break into the burrata and admire the cream oozing out before devouring it!

Notes

You will have leftover blueberry sauce- it keeps well in the fridge. Halve it if you don't want any leftover.
