Categories     appetizer

Time 4h

Yield Sixteen servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 cup chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons cracked black pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil
3 pounds boned pork loin
4 ripe cantaloupes, halved, seeded, cut into 1-inch-thick wedges and peeled

Steps:

  • Combine the rosemary, salt, pepper and olive oil and rub the mixture all over the pork loin. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate overnight.
  • Start a charcoal grill. When coals are very hot, place the pork on the grill and cook until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove the pork from the grill and let the coals burn down for 10 minutes. Return the pork to the grill, cover and let cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 150 to 160 degrees, about 3 hours. If the pork is not done and the fire is out, finish cooking in the oven at 325 degrees. Let cool. Refrigerate until cold.
  • Trim the ends off of the pork and slice the roast as thin as possible. To serve, arrange the cantaloupe slices on plates or a large platter and drape 1 slice of pork over each piece of melon.

Categories     Lunch

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups cantaloupe, peeled and cubed
1 cucumber, peeled and cubed
1 orange bell pepper, diced
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
¼ cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 ¼ cups prosciutto, thinly sliced
¼ bunch fresh basil, picked
freshly cracked pepper, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. On a parchment lined baking sheet, place your prosciutto slices in a single layer. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes, until the prosciutto crisps, then remove and set aside.
  • In a blender, combine the cantaloupe, cucumber, bell pepper, salt, vinegar, and olive oil. Blend very well until extremely smooth. Strain into an air-tight container and allow to chill in the fridge for at least an hour (this can be made the day before serving as well).
  • When ready to serve, portion the chilled soup evenly into bowls, then garnish with freshly picked basil, a few pieces of the crisped prosciutto, an extra drizzle of olive oil, and a fresh crack of black pepper. Enjoy!
