Steps:
- Start by washing and drying cantaloupe with a paper towel.Cut it in half and scoop out the seeds.Save one half for decoration where you'll stack the skewers into.
- Using a simple melon baller scoop out melon balls and set aside.
- If you have extra large pieces of prosciutto cut them in the diagonal.
- Drain mozzarella pearls from excess liquid.
- Tap basil leaves with damp cloth to remove any dust. Don't wash them.
- Place the half of the cantaloupe you have set aside on a serving dish.
- Using 5 and 10 inch kabob skewers stack ingredients starting with those you want to be on the top.We'll start with basil leaf and a melon ball, followed by prosciutto and mozzarella pearl and so on.You can finish with mozzarella pearl or melon ball (which I prefer) if you have still space on the skewer.
- As you finish each skewer stick it into the cantaloupe half.
- Serve immediately or store in the fridge for a few hours before serving.
