Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare all the ingredients needed for the recipe. Wash the kiwis thoroughly and have them ready. Measuring out other ingredients beforehand will make the cooking process much smoother.
Step 2
Prepare half of the fresh mozzarella ball. Gently tear the cheese along its natural lines into bite-sized pieces. Tearing it this way helps to achieve the characteristic soft texture of stracciatella cheese.
Step 3
In a bowl, combine the 60g of ricotta cheese, 30g of heavy cream, and the torn fresh mozzarella from step 1. Gently mix everything together with a spatula or fork until well combined. Be careful not to overmix; aim for a creamy consistency.
Step 4
Peel the 3 Zespri green kiwis and cut them into bite-sized pieces. The sweetness and tanginess of the kiwi will enrich the flavor of the salad.
Step 5
On your serving plate, spread the stracciatella cheese mixture made in step 2 evenly using a spoon. Shape it nicely, resembling soft clouds.
Step 6
Arrange the Zespri green kiwi pieces, cut in step 3, attractively on top of the stracciatella cheese. The vibrant green color of the kiwi will add freshness to the salad.
Step 7
Now it’s time to add the dressing to enhance the salad’s flavor. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey, 1 tablespoon of balsamic glaze, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil according to your preference. Finally, sprinkle a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper to balance the flavors.
Step 8
Lastly, garnish the salad with the prepared leafy greens and sprinkle the chopped nuts over the top for added texture and nuttiness. Your beautiful and vibrant Kiwi Stracciatella Salad is ready!
